Functionalities of the software refer to processing of data. These data are collected and processed in the processes of forest inventory, marking of trees for cutting, preparation of operating plans and through production of annual plans for forest management. The software support work with a centralized data base (e.g. SQL server) for a long-term data archiving. This allows a continuous tracking of conducted work and monitoring of forest conditions for larger areas, up to the state level.
The software is custom-made for each user, depending on user’s individual methodology and policy of forest management. This means that the applied methods, objectives, measures, types of work, price lists etc. all correspond to user’s habitual approach and are uniquely defined. As such, the software can be further used by a larger number of users.
The National Forest Inventory is designed according to the principle of inventory sampling and is accompanied by the provision of mapped information. The National Forest Inventory (NFI) provides extensive and unique records of key information about forests and woodlands. NFI is an inventory method designed to provide accurate information about the size, distribution, composition and condition of forests and woodlands, as well as about the changes taking place in the woodlands through time. It is essential for developing and monitoring the policies and guidelines that support the sustainable management of forests.
The software is designed and used for the NFI in Serbia 2007, Montenegro in 2013 and is currently in use for the NFI of Serbia for the time period between 2019 and 2021. For each of these methodologies, a custom software was developed, in accordance with the national methodology. This is the principle which should be used in cases of other countries as well.
The latest version of software was developed by using MS visual studio tools and .net libraries. For spatial presentation MS SQL server and his GIS functionalities and Geo data types are used.

This software package is designed for stand forest inventory, development of long-term (10y) forest management plans, forest harvesting plan, thinning, silviculture, afforestation and other silviculture and protection measures.
The software is also intended for managing a central database of forest resources, forest conditions monitoring and other purposes.
The package contains modules “OsnovaNET”, “OsnovaIN”, “OsnovaPrintReport”
The software is implemented by using development tools based on MS Visual studio and MS .NET framework platform. Software enables connection with MS Access or MS SQL server database, or connection to Azure cloud database. GIS functionalities (such as GIS Viewer) are supported for SHP files as well as MS SQL Geo data format.
The program has different versions that have been adapted to national standards for forest stand inventory in Serbia, Montenegro, Tajikistan, Georgia, Macedonia. The user interface of these versions is always multilingual, including the local language as well as English.

This software provides tools for processing of the following data:
The software enables data processing in the process of preparation of operational and annual plans for forest management, income plans, costs, necessary work material, workforce etc. For every department, the data for trees intended for cutting is entered and processed, the performance projects are developed, and annual plans created at the end of the calendar year. The software is connected to the base “Osnova”, from which, the necessary data is collected.
The application of the software enables an implementation of custom methodology and politics of forest management. This means that the types of work, objectives, measures, price lists, norms etc. are custom-defined and unique, and can, as such, be further used by a larger number of users.
There are several possible methods to calculate the volume of trees:
The method of calculating volume of trees can be enabled by:
During data processing the structure of wood assortments can be a part of the project and stored into the database. Reports on marking of trees for cutting should provide an overview on volume of a tree species and number of trees, according to the tree’s diameter structure. Software provides a comparative overview of volumes and number of trees from inventory and tree marking.
The implementation of the software requires an adjustment to local needs and to the methodology which is already in practical use.
The software is intended for keeping records of work completed as part of (the) forest management (plan). The records include works of using and cultivation of forests, forest roads, forest chronicles etc. The software encompasses options for detailed and summary report production. It is connected to other programs from “OsnovaNET” package. Among other things, its purpose is to enable its users to monitor the implementation and realization of forest management plans.
The software represents one of the modules of the software package for planning and forest management. This module builds on the existing system of stand forest inventory and forest condition (data base “Osnova”) and it supplements it with information about forest health conditions. The software covers tracking of harmful phytopathological occurrences and insects, abiotic factors and forest fires.
