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 free service to society. The system covers the whole decision support process from data inventory to tools for selecting among plan alternatives with multi-criteria decision making 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
• 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). It is maintained and supported by the Heureka Unit
