The SLOPE workflow
SLOPE project aims to optimize forest production building a 3D forest model to support the entire wood process, from tree RFID tagging to
cut and de-branched logs ready for the sawmills.

Computer aided cableway planning
Cableway setup is complex and time consuming:• Morphological issues
- Canopy height, forest density, marked trees, terrain height
• Machine limitations:- Cable length, inclination, payload, cable tension, covered area
• Human costs:- 2 Days for cable yarder deployment- 1 Day for each intermediate support
Main goals:• Minimize deployment times and costs (no supports)• Maximize cable line coverage area

Computer aided cableway planning
Main planning steps:1. Take measures: draw polygonal area lines to detect
landing zone or other operational areas
2. Assess cable launch feasibility
3. Draw cable lines:1. Add at least 2 pylons by click or coordinates2. Check constraints3. Modify cable line (adjust tension,
add/remove/move pylons)
4. Verify covered harvesting area
5. Export data
