User's guide to StandWise

Introduction

StandWise (swe: BeståndsVis) is a stand-level management simulation and visulization tool (2D and 3D). With StandWise you can simulate different kinds of treatments, such as planting, cleaning, thinning, clearcutting, and fertilization. Strip-roads can be laid out graphically. You can simulate the development over an extended time horizon and define treatments manually or let the program do it for you. Growth projections are based on single-tree growth functions. Economical returns from harvesting are computed with bucking algorithms given the price list used. Costs computations are based on time-consumption functions for harvester and forwarder. Besides from growth-and yield values, other utilities such as carbon sequestration and recreational indices can be computed.
