Abstract

Abstract The optimum solution of locating a forest road network in a given forest area is still difficult to determine due to the complexity and the nature of the problem. Heuristic solutions are estimations of the optimum location but not the optimum one. This paper presents a dynamic programming procedure, integrated with microcomputer-based spatial database and transport network models, which can be used to assist foresters in determining the optimum location for a forest road. This method contributes to the optimum location of an entire road network serving a forest area.
