Analysis of forest accessibility in management unit »Blatuško brdo« and possible optimisation

Cilj otvaranja šuma šumskim prometnicama je uspostavljanje optimalne mreže šumskih prometnica na terenu. Pristupačnost šumi u gospodarskom smislu ovisi o: 1) prometnoj infrastrukturi (otvorenosti šume) i uvjetima (načinu transporta) i 2) terenskim uvjetima unutar mreže prometnica. U ovom radu prikazana je analiza primarne otvorenosti šuma te je predložena izrada višekriterijskog modela kojom bi se olakšalo/unaprijedilo buduće otvaranje ove gospodarske jedinice.The goal of forest accessibility is to get an optimal traffic infrastructure network. Forest accessibility depends on 1) traffic infrastructure network (terms of transport) and 2) terrain conditions. This research deals with the analysis of the primary forest accessibility in the management unit (MU) Blatuško brdo. For the researched MU an automatized multi-criteria decision making model in ArcGIS was developed in order to enhance planning of future forest road design
