Proposal of using GIS for multi-criteria evaluation of environmentally friendly use of skidding technologies in forestry

Original language description

The aim of the study was to propose and verify a model which, based on multi-criteria evaluation of selected input data, determines the category in terms of the environmentally friendly use of individual skidding technologies for each stand. A farm tractor, skidder, cable system, forwarders, and forwarders in combination with harvesters were selected as model skidding technologies. The selected input parameters included: slope inclination, ground bearing capacity, risk of logging-transportation erosiondevelopment, presence and size of obstacles, skidding distance, terrain shape and age of stands. Weights of input parameters for multi-criteria evaluation were defined by means of Saaty's matrix and geometric mean of rows. Stocking and areal representation of spruce and fir were added to the evaluation of forwarder-harvester combination. Different equipment (standard tires, low-pressure tires, wheel tracks) and climatic conditions (dry, wet) were also taken into account in the evaluation
