Abstract

The paper considers the impact of informatization on improving the efficiency of forestry enterprises. It is established that the enterprises of forestry complex use information technology based on modern standards of enterprise management. It has been determined that forestry enterprises are diverse, which does not allow to create a simple and effective solution for all types of activity. Forestry is the most computerized in terms of resource accounting with a wide implementation of geoinformation technology, which applies quite a lot of both proprietary and commercial software products, much attention is paid to filling electronic databases with cartographic and taxation information about forestry fund. The research of this class of programs showed that they can operate both in local and networked modes, including the use of the Internet. It was found that there is less developed area related to forest management modeling for enhancement of forest stand growth, commercial software products are absent, but there are author's developments. It has been revealed that in the area of logging there is software used by the leading manufacturers of logging equipment (Jonh Deere, Komatsu, Ponsse) and a number of author’s non-commercial solutions. It has been determined that there are a sufficiently large number of information sites as well as author's databases containing information on particular areas in the field of logging information supply. Our research has shown that the software used in the Russian Federation does not provide complex informatization of forestry and logging enterprises, which reduces their efficiency.
