The changes in the nature of forest ecosystems require a continuous monitoring and management in order to face the problems that may appear due to these changes. The main goal of FOREMMS, (EU project), is to develop and demonstrate an advanced forest environmental and management prototype system. In the framework of FOREMMS we are describing the design and implementation of an autonomous system, based on a handheld PC as the field device, for the acquisition of manual measures in the field about the environmental parameters of forests. The application personalizes the handheld PC as a system for data collection so that, the user can introduce all the manual measurements field data easily, send them to the lab to be completed and later on to database. This system can be useful also for other data gathering applications such as fire prevention monitoring systems and it can be used for calibration of remote sensing systems.
