Field work can be outsourced from DFRS to<br />

the districts or entrepreneurs, the existing<br />

professional human resource can be made<br />

available for the field work.<br />

Field computers and GPS devices<br />

applicable for the work.<br />

Collaborative actions planned with Survey<br />

Department.<br />

Partners found for the LiDAR Working<br />

Area.<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

Satellite image material with sufficient<br />

quality (resolution, clouds, shadows,<br />

coverage) can be found.<br />

Pre-processing is possible within the given<br />

timeframe.<br />

Sufficient professional human resource can<br />

be made available.<br />

The aerial photos from 1990’s are available.<br />

Quality of the remote sensing material<br />

sufficient for TOF application.<br />

Suitable mapping companies and services<br />

are available. In case international mapping<br />

companies are contracted, the bureaucratic<br />

obstacles can be managed.<br />

Activity 4. Data processing<br />

1. Database software for the forest<br />

inventory data processing and reporting<br />

1. Manuals available<br />

2. Biometric models applicable and in<br />

<br />

An appropriate professional IT-company is<br />

available for development of database<br />
