Forest organisations are testing the MOTTI
software
The MOTTI software helps to simulate stand development and compare
the impact of different treatment chains on the tree stand and economic
income. In addition to the basal area growth model and dominant
height model describing peatland development, a probability model
describing mortality and models predicting the effects of ditch
network maintenance and fertilisation were also created. The MOTTI
software provides for versatile examination of wood products and
price differences can be taken into account in profitability comparisons.
For example, prediction of small-diameter logging can be a useful
additional tool for economic comparisons of management types.
Forest organizations have tested the MOTTI software in practice.
It is a good decision support tool for primary thinning in peatland
stands, to mention just one example. The models and software solutions
tested in MOTTI are also applied in the MELA software.
