Abstract:
A computer executable method for simulating forest management, comprising the steps of:selecting a plurality of TreeClass object-oriented objects to be used with a Stand object-oriented object;assigning the plurality of TreeClass object-oriented objects to a specific simulated stand within a Stand object-oriented object;creating a stand model for simulating growing a plurality of simulated trees with the assigned TreeClass object-oriented objects in the specific simulated stand for the Stand object-oriented object;adding the stand model to an Ownership object-oriented object; andadding the Ownership object-oriented object with the stand model to an Organization object-oriented object; andadding the stand model and the Organization object-oriented object to a database, wherein a plurality of stand models and a plurality of Organization object-oriented objects from the database are used to construct an object-oriented forest resource model that is used to make comparisons among a plurality of different Organizations with a plurality of different simulated stand models.
