Forestimator, a simple application for stand description and station analysis
On 27 March 2026 - Gembloux
Objective
The Forestimator application was developed by the teams at ULiège Gembloux Agro Bio-Tech. It is a geolocalised map interface (usable on PC or smartphone) that allows a plot to be characterised from the point of view of the site (soil type, climate, water and trophic levels, species on site, etc.) as well as the stand (species present, basal area, dominant height, density, average circumference, etc.). It therefore constitutes a valuable decision-support tool for your management. During the training, after a theoretical introduction, we will familiarise ourselves with the application in the classroom before heading into the forest to test its various functionalities in diverse stands.
