Project 3019
Developing and supporting experimental activities
Continuous research project
The project developes methods, means and equipments used and needed in
experimental field works of the Finnish Forest Research Institute. The
project is managing the administrative database of about 7000 permanent
experiments established and supported by the institute. It developes field
work instructions, blanks and measuring instruments. It also developes
data managing such as data collection, data transfer, data checking, data
storage and basic calculations. An important target is to facilitate the
multiple use of data by eliminating the unnecessary variation in work methods
and data.
The project is divided into seven unofficial sub projects. It organises
training courses and seminaries. The project takes care of the common instruments,
forms and other materials needed in field work as well as of the programs
used in data checking and basic calculations.
