Workpackage 1

A greater understanding of the woodland resources in the Grande Région

Specific objective

Improve knowledge of the forests of the Grande Région (GR) within the context of global changes, which will lead to major changes in these forests: loss of productivity, decline of certain species, appearance of other species

In detail

The module’s activities involve the production of ‘tree-scale’ forest maps to assess the resource potential of so-called species of the future, using Lidar and satellite image technologies; the development of growth models to estimate the availability of certain species of the future over a 30-year time span; the use of mobile Lidar to create cubing and assortment models; and the use of two cutting-edge technologies to analyse climate-growth relationships.
