In forestry science growth models like SILVA are used to research system feedbacks. Possible applications for forest growth simulators are the optimisation of silvicultural management strategies, calculation of climate change impacts, landscape visualization, and the prognoses for sustainability of growing stock and economic sustainability. SILVA3 is designed as a platform-independent clientserver-architecture embedding connections to different data sources like forest inventory data bases. The benefit of integrating SILVA in forest planning processes is shown in a case study.Text/Conference Paper
