NED-2: A decision support system for integrated forest ecosystem management
NED-2 is a Windows-based system designed to improve project-level planning and decision making by providing useful and scientifically sound information to natural resource managers. Resources currently addressed include visual quality, ecology, forest health, timber, water, and wildlife. NED-2 expands on previous versions of NED applications by integrating treatment prescriptions, growth stimulation, and alternative comparisons with evaluations of multiple resources across a management unit.
