SaarForst Landesbetrieb — Forest biotope mapping
Description
Forest biotope mapping is a survey method that can provide comprehensive ecological foundations for the implementation of natural forest management. This forest ecological monitoring includes, among others: The derivation of the natural forest society and the resulting natural proximity of the actually increasing stock. The determination of habitat diversity, special biotopes and vegetation types. The collection of protected (so-called 22) biotopes by means of special forest types or rare and protected plant and animal resources. Forest biotope mapping does not claim an exact scientific mapping of existing species or ecosystems. It is to be understood as an information and guide to the local economist in order to combine his economic activity with ecological action, more or less a general, selective but also binding management plan for the conservation and promotion of biodiversity in our forests. The results of the comprehensive WBK are not shown here. The listed objects reflect the state of selective mapping from 1990 to 2008 and are methodically based on the mapping instructions “Full-surface forest biotope mapping in Saarland” — editor: Minister for the Environment, Energy and Transport of Saarland — as of 1999. Forest biotope mapping is currently being rebuilt according to current standards.
