The Heureka Forestry Decision Support System (DSS) is a suite of freely available softwares developed and hosted by the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU) as a service. The system covers the whole decision support process from data inventory to tools for multi-criteria decision making of plans generated with optimization techniques.

The software applications are intended for both large-scale and small-scale forestry and are designed for different users' specific problem areas:

  • StandWise for stand-level analysis
  • PlanWise for forest-level planning and analysis
  • PlanEval for multi-critera decision analysis, to help comparing plans generated in PlanWise (no english name yet!)
  • RegWise for regional and national scenario analysis
  • Ivent is an application for field inventory - plotwise sampling of single-tree data (for Windows mobile devices)
  • PlanStart is used for project initiation and data preparation (mainly import of data from different data sources)

The softwares are the results of a research programme carried out in collaboration with Forestry Research Institute of Sweden (Skogforsk). Is is maintained and supported by the Heureka Unit
