Abstract

A new computerized forest management system which is based on the commercially available database management system, SIR/DBMS, has been developed for mono-specific evenaged forest estates. The system is composed of two major subsystems, a Management Information System (MIS) and a Decision Support System (DSS). The MIS operates such that data integrity and timeliness are the responsibility of regional staff. The DSS uses iterative heuristical simulation techniques to produce tactical plans which are subsets of the longer strategic plans. Experience to date has found the system very flexible and well received by field staff.
