Konzeption eines „smarten“ betrieblichen Flächenmanagementsystems für den kleineren Nicht-Staatswald

Abstract

Forestry land of private ownership is mainly classified as business assets for income tax purposes. Accordingly, forest ownership is sufficient for the assumption of a business activity, regardless of management measures. However, in private forests in particular, owners are already aiming for sustainable and successful management of their own land. In addition to the proper forest management required by forest law, successful management requires constant consideration, evaluation and comparison. In the target group of non-state forest enterprises with less than 500 ha, however, these characteristics are countered by climatic challenges, complex organisational structures and upheavals caused by cartel law. In particular, the shifts in forestry support resulting from the latter require a qualified presentation of forestry data along basic economical management aspects of inventory, planning and control.But here the target group lacks affordable and modern solutions. In order to approach this gap conceptually, a broad pluralism of methods is used. First, the institutional framework conditions are identified with the help of a literature review. This forms the basis for an exemplary investigation of existing solutions for land management in European agriculture and forestry. During this, the British "myForest -woodland manager" offers an inexpensive and simply structured web portal solution that can serve as a blueprint for a German solution. LogBuch", on the other hand, is a novel solution for geometry recording and attribution based on language and GNSSsupported data input and management options. This approach is followed by the document analysis regarding the classification of forest geometries. At the same time, this methodology serves to determine parameters for the corresponding attribution of these areas. A heterogeneous picture emerges both in terms of land division and forest classification as well as quantitative stand description. According to this, there are noticeable differences within Germany, especially regarding the forest division structure, but also in terms of the inventory, planning and documentation parameters. Based on the findings of the exemplary study of land management instruments and the document analysis, the status quo and future perspectives of land management on the part of the target group are elicited with the help of guideline-supported expert interviews. Among other things, this shows a high willingness to document the execution of measures, if this is supported adequately along a few, but relevant characteristics and technically. In addition, there is a desire for digital and mobile solutions that also enable contact with third parties such as the forestry association (FBG) without media discontinuity. On the part of the FBG, there is a need for the allocation of cadastral and natural data.
