“…The authors reported significant differences in wind speed of cut trees caused by slope conditions, (13) they determined or the effect of terrain slope on the productivity, cycle time, and elementary times of a Valmet 450 FXL self-leveling processor that processes a pine plantation. In contrast to previous research, no significant differences were found between processor productivity, Cycle time and elementary times (movement/positioning, balancing and processing) between slope classes, (14) presents an Integrated Forest Information System (FIS) for optimizing forest production in mountainous areas, Finally, (15) evaluated the operational performance and efficiency of a coffee harvester on a steep slope under different situations and speed fluctuations, finding that the field slope influences the performance of the machine.…”

In Colombia the agricultural sector has difficulties in the integration of technologies, due to the difficulties of the topography, very characteristic in the area of Colombian mountain ranges that pass through the main agricultural departments of the country and the limitations of human capacity; the citrus harvesting process has traditionally been done by hand, employing thousands of people who do not achieve significant yields; , thus causing an increase in production costs with an impact on harvest indicators, measured in terms of quality and productivity. This study aims to determine the impact of field slope conditions on quality indicators and indicators of effectiveness, efficiency, and loss indictors, used to evaluate the productivity of the orange harvesting process in a case study in the Department of Caldas-Colombia in order to identify opportunities for process improvement. Field information was made on orange-producing farms with different land slopes classified into four categories. Statistically significant partnerships were identified between the efficiency, efficiency and loss indicators and the field slope conditions. In addition, some of these indicators showed inverse relationships to the slope gradient. On the contrary, the quality of the fruit is not affected by the slope conditions of the land.

Advanced remote sensing technologies has recently become an effective tool for monitoring of forest ecosystems. However, there is a growing need for online dissemination of geospatial data from these activities. We developed and assessed a framework which integrates (1) an algorithm for estimation of forest stand variables based on remote sensing data and (2) a web-map application for 2D and 3D visualisation of geospatial data. The performance of proposed framework was assessed in a Forest Management Unit Vígľaš (Slovakia, Central Europe) covering a total area of 12,472 ha. The mean error of remote sensing-based estimations of forest resources reached values of 16.4%, 12.1%, –26.8%, and –35.4% for the mean height, mean diameter, volume per hectare, and trees per hectare, respectively. The web-map application is stable and allows real-time visualization of digital terrain model, aerial imagery, thematic maps used in forestry or geology, and 968,217 single trees at forest management unit level.
