General System description
System name: Heureka RegWise
System overview
RegWise is an application of the Heureka for making long-term forest scenario analyses for a multi-objective forestry. Analyses are primarily based on data from the Swedish National Forest Inventory and other data sources as remote sensing and digital map data.
It consists of models that predict the tree-layer development for a rotation period. Examples are growth-, mortality-, biomass models and models for carbon and wood properties. The user can simulate a number of treatments as regeneration, thinning and clearcutting.
RegWise simulates the development of forests for larger areas such as counties over long time periods (about 100 years). The analyses includes production of timber and bio fuel, sequestration of carbon, potential for biodiversity and suitability for recreation. The analyses are based on detailed assumptions' of future forest management.
Users will most likely be authorities such as National Board of Forestry, Swedish Environmental Protection Agency, Swedish Energy Agency, companies, Forest owners Associations and other organisations
