WebCorky

Has flag	yellow

Has software	WebCorky

Has description	WebCorky is a web adaptadion of a desktop tool present in sIMfLOR (Faias, 2012) to project cork caliber samples of a Quercus suber L. stand. The application uses equations developed by Almeida et al. (2010). WebCorky has a simple sample and multisample projection interface. The latter alows the classification of the samples evolution in time, in order to support a decision on when is the best time to debark the stand, according to userdefined cork prices and interest rates.
