متن کاملTimber Management Planning with Timber RAM and Goal Programming
By using goal programming to enhance the linear programming of Timber RAM, multiple decision criteria were incorporated in the timber management planning of a National Forest in the southeastern United States. Combining linear and goal programming capitalizes on the advantages of the two techniques and produces operationally feasible solutions. This enhancement may also be applicable to linear ...
متن کاملTimber Mapping for Site-Specific Forest Management
