Forestry | Patchworks
The flagship product of
Spatial Planning Systems
is Patchworks, a
sustainable forest management optimization
model that incorporates real world operational
considerations into the strategic planning
framework.
Groupe OptiVert inc is the industry
leader in Quebec in terms of Patchworks
expertise. In addition, our team of experts
has developped a custom Patchworks toolkit,
allowing us reduce time and cost to set up new
analysis projects.
Services
Examples types of analyses performed using Patchworks:
- economic analysis (ie. profit maximisation, cost reduction)
- sustainable harvest simulations (ie. species-wise AAC projections)
- variable harvest simulations
- spatially explicit optimisation patches (ie. harvest blocks, retention blocks, wildlife habitat, etc.)
- sylviculture scenario simulation
- road network deployment simulations
Patchworks features a flexible accounting
system, allowing us to easily customise the
output to track any number of performance
indicators (costs, revenues, harvest volume,
delivered volume, etc).
