What is digital forestry science and technology

Digital forestry is the State Forestry Administration to determine the "Tenth Five-Year" period of major scientific and technological projects, projects aimed at digital means to reproduce the real state of forestry. That is, the realization of not out of the office, do not listen to reports, do not see the document, just through the Internet can be timely and accurate understanding of the real state of forestry. Digital forestry has two main meanings, one is the digitization of forestry information based on 3S (remote sensing RS, geographic information system GIS, global positioning system GPS) technology; the second is the storage, processing, transmission and application of these digital information. In other words, digital forestry can not only express the various features of forestry in digital form, but also process these figures.　　The construction of digital forestry technology system is an important aspect in the construction of digital forestry. It is mainly composed of six elements, namely: information data, standard specifications, software platform, hardware and network system, technical personnel, organization and management. Among them, the hardware and network mainly rely on the purchase and installation of the establishment, technical personnel from the actual work of training and introduction, organizational management by learning from experience and combined with their own work practice and gradually find out, and information data acquisition, standards and specifications, the software platform is the construction of digital forestry technology system is the most basic and the most important task to rely on the development and construction of the independent solution. Suitable standardization is the basis of information data and software platform construction. Digital forestry science and technology is the study of digital forestry related technology.
