Road Network Planning in Tropical Forests Using GIS
Croatian journal of forest engineering, 2022 This study intended to develop a road network planning for timber harvesting in tropical forests in Peru using georeferenced and field data and Geographic Information System (GIS). The Digital Elevation Model (DEM) Alos Palsar 12.5 m was used. The DEM was processed to generate the hydrography and terrain slope maps.

Road network designing in a forested watershed using network connectivity indices
Journal of Forest Science, 2023 Designing and constructing a road network is one of the most critical steps of the development process in managing natural resources. The current research is going to investigate the application of network connectivity indices to the analysis of road networks in the forested watershed.

Decision making model in forest road network management [PDF]
Vojnotehnicki glasnik, 2019 Forest resource exploitation and the achievement of full forest potential depend on the density and quality of the forest road network. The forest road network has to fulfill multiple functions; it thus has strategic importance in forest management.

Optimization of a forest road network.
Netherlands Journal of Agricultural Science, 1985 A new planning model was developed that does not specify parallel road networks as in existing models (e.g. Larsson's). The new model, based on the 'travelling salesman' algorithm, consists of 2 complementary models for flat and broken terrain which are reproduced in the synopsis together with Larsson's model.

Assessing landscape functional connectivity in a forest carnivore using path selection functions [PDF]
, 2015 Context Understanding connectivity patterns in relation to habitat fragmentation is essential to landscape management. However, connectivity is often judged from expert opinion or species occurrence patterns, with very few studies considering the actual ...

Croatian Journal of Forest Engineering, 2018 Natural forests are one of the three types of forest management in terms of origin. These forests are of seed origin and they regenerate naturally. Therefore, natural forests are the most important forest category from the point of view of timber production, as well as its quality and biodiversity.
