ForestHQ facilitates the management of forest operations and processes.

Solutions for forest inventory and monitoring

The ROSEWOOD4.0 network and project starts the year by taking a look at innovative solutions for forest inventory and monitoring.

Paper Province is an active partner in the ROSEWOOD4.0 network, a project that harnesses the most innovative digital solutions in forestry and drives knowledge transfer to connect multiple actors along the forest value chain with the aim of strengthening the sustainability of wood mobilisation, forest management and the wood industry in Europe.

Every month, the European-wide network presents a selection of digital applications and best practices collected in the Knowledge Platform for Regional Forest Innovation to offer forestry and wood industry stakeholders more opportunities to improve and modernise their activities and make them more sustainable and efficient. January’s choice is all about solutions for forest inventory and monitoring.
