Problem
How should this model be applied when growth for a shorter period than 5 years is calculated?
- Ignore ingrowth?
- Adjust weight of ingrown trees, e.g. if the time period is 3 years, then the weight of the ingrown trees is multiplied with 3/5?
- Adjust diameter of ingrown trees? How?
- Adjust diameter and weight?
Background
Interpolation to another time period than 5 years is used in two different ways:
- To estimate values for all years between two 5-year periods. Needed when data is prepared for tactical planning. Here, ingrown trees are ignored during the intermediate years, and added in the last period. E.g. if period 1 = year 5, and period 2 = year 10; then for years 6 to 9 ingrown trees are not included.
- To make prognostics for a time period shorter than 5 years. Needed both for tactial planning export and in RegVis. Here, the issue described above is not solved for the moment.
