You can use the integrated map viewer both for the initial state and for the plans or scenarios. The difference between the initial state and the plans or scenarios is that the latter can show a map for each time period, and you can scroll back and forth between time periods.

<%EXTOGGLE%>Create map for categorical variables (for example treatments)

A category variable is a typed variable that can have a certain value code. For example, treatments (result variable Treatment in the result group with the same name) is a category variable that can take the value Planting, Cleaning, Thinning etc. (see TreatmentCodes on HeurekaWiki). Other examples are soil moisture and vegetation type (variables Soil Moisture and Vegetation Type, found in the SiteData result group).

 

Here is an example illustrating how to create a thematic map for a category variable. If the stand register you imported contains management classes you can make a map showing them. The variable is called ManagementClass and is found in the result group StandObjectData. The possible value codes are PG, PF, NS, and NO. If you have not imported management classes, you can follow the same instructions but for some other variable, for example Vegetation Type

 

Instructions.

 

1.Select the map tab under Initial State (1).
2.Click the plus sign next to StandObjectData in the Theme Maps window (2). If you cannot access the variables make sure that Edit Mode is selected.
3.Right-click on StandObject Data > ManagementClass and select Create Classes Automatically (3).
4.Now a Legend dialog box appears. Change colours if you like by clicking on a colour box and choosing from the colour palette (4). You can also delete values that are not shown on the map, which is particularly useful if you create a similar map for treatments in a plan (treatments are not available in Initial State). This allows you, for example, to choose to show only thinning and final felling.
5.Now the legend for this variable is ready and will be available for all other projects. This means you do not need to create the same legend again. Note that you cannot make multiple thematic maps for the same variable. To view the map, switch to View mode and select the map (5).
6.To edit the colors in the legend, right-click on an element and select Edit Classes (6).

<%EXTOGGLE%>Creata thematic map with gradients

For continuous variables you create classes, by specifying a desired class width and a maximum value.

 

Here is an example illustrating how to create a map of mean age, with class width 25 years and the last class containing stands 175 years and older. The instructions are very similar to those in the previous section, what differs is step 4.

 

 

1.Select the map tab under Initial State (1).  
2.Click the plus sign next to ForestData in the Theme Maps window (2). If you cannot access the variables make sure that Edit Mode is selected.
3.Right-click on ForestData > Mean Age (excl Overstorey) and select Create Classes Automatically (3).

MapSelectMeanAge

4.Now the dialog Create Gradient appears. Enter values according according to the image below, i.e. set Class Width (4) to 25 (5), and Max Value to 175 (6). By clicking on the color boxes you can change the colors used to create the gradient (7). For gradients it is suitable to have the same color, but with different brightness.

MapDefineGradient

5.The other steps are the same as in the previous section.

 
<%EXTOGGLE%>View mode

After you have created a legend for a thematic map it is added to the list in the view mode ("View" ), where you can quickly find and select it:

 

KartaVisningsLage
<%EXTOGGLE%>View details of a stand that is selected in the map

If you click on a stand in the map with the Select Stand tool, some basic stand data is displayed in the Treatment Unit Information window:

 

MapShowTuInfo

 

 
<%EXTOGGLE%>Show simulation- and optimization results

To display maps for a plan created in PlanWise you open the tab Optimization Results > Details and Maps > Map.

 

Then select the results you wish to view from the list on the left (1), by right-clicking on it and choose Show Result (2). If you have used the Tactical TPG you must select Tactical in the list of simulation types (3).

 

MapSelectResultPlanWise

 

In RegWise you proceed similarly, but in the Simulation Results - Maps window.
