A review of the current state of wood quality modelling and decision support systems in Canada / Maurice Defo, Isabelle Duchesne and James Stewart.: Fo148-1/12E-PDF
The objective of this project was to promote the integration of wood quality models developed by the Canadian Wood Fibre Centre (CWFC) and other institutions into growth and yield simulators or value chain optimization systems so that the forest and forest products sectors can derive maximum benefit from these models. The approach was threefold: to review the literature on existing wood quality models, growth and yield simulators and decision support systems to have a clear portrait of the situation in Canada, to send a questionnaire survey to model developers to estimate the level of integration of their model(s), and to hold a national workshop with experts to discuss challenges related to the integration of wood quality models into decision-support systems, and reflect on a strategy to address these challenges.
