Author(s): Jose Luis Garcinuno

The present study raises the need to develop a tactical model of supplying a forest company with information by using GIS and mathematical models.



Target

To allow the model to be a support tool for-long term decision making with regard to the available timber and the distribution of forest entries, both in time and space.



To determine, given typical characteristic of the forest, how to manage each timber type using silvicultural options and opportunities to apply them.



To determine the timing and location of harvest volumes according to the demands generated by the sustainable harvest model developed by the company.
