Classification of Forestry Land

ABSTRACT Land classification provides an effective framework for the organisation of information at the operational (compartment), managerial (plantation) and strategic (company) levels. Such a framework can facilitate task allocation and cost control, assist in the identification of investment opportunities, aid resource allocation and help with the prediction of risks and hazards. The advent of integrated software, improved data base management systems, Increased flexibility In input/output hardware, and a greater awareness of the potential of data processing, will combine to make computer applications in forest land classification more effective.
