General System description
System name: Heureka
Brief overview
Heureka DSS is being developed within the Heureka research programme. It provides an analysis and planning set of tools for multi-purpose forestry and environmental protection.
Contents
Scope of the system
Heureka consists of a set of decision support tools for forest resources analysis and planning. This DSS is still in development. It will provide utilities as timber and bio-fuel production, carbon sequestration, biodiversity, and recreation. It is divided into three different tools, depending on the potential users and problems:
- RegWise - Regional analyses of forest development
- PlanWise - Planning and analyses for small and large companies
- StandWise - Analyses of silviculture treatments and stand development for single stands
System origin
- Heureka's research programme is carried by SLU and Skogforsk. It is planned to finish in October 2009.
- how was it developed
- is it a commercial product
- does it have real-life application cases
Related systems
Heureka aims to eventually replace two Swedish former DSSs[2]:
- the Hugin system, and
- the Forest Management Planning Package.
