allometric equations to support volume, biomass and carbon assessment.

Abstract: GlobAllomeTree is an international platform for tree
allometric equations. It is the first worldwide web platform designed to
facilitate the access of the tree allometric equation and to facilitate
the assessment of the tree biometric characteristics for commercial
volume, bio-energy or carbon cycling. The webplatform presents a
database containing tree allometric equations, a software called
Fantallomatrik, to facilitate the comparison and selection of the
equations, and documentation to facilitate the development of new tree
allometric models, improve the evaluation of tree and forest resources
and improve knowledge on tree allometric equations. In the
Fantallometrik software, equations can be selected by country,
ecological zones, input parameters, tree species, statistic parameters
and outputs. The continuously updated database currently contains over
5000 tree allometric equations classified according to 73 fields. The
software Fantallometrik can be also used to compare equations, insert
new data and estimate the selected output variables using field
inventory. The GlobAllomeTree products are freely available at the URL: ⇒ http://globallometree.org for a range of users including foresters, project developers, scientist, student and government staff.
