Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

A ndash carriage arrived to the storage destination (end of translation down)

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

A ndash carriage arrived to the storage destination (end of translation down)

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

Integration of automatic RFID reading with the SLOPE software

Reading of tree RFID tag by the processor is extremely important bull to visualize the recommended cross-cutting of treebull for updating the JSON file (tree status) to be uploaded to the FIS

Three modules were created used specifically forbull identifying ID of tree harvested in the forest by the intelligent cable crane

during its transportation from the site to the storagebull identifying ID of tree to be processed by the intelligent processor bull identifying RFID of the newly created log after inserting new tag by the

machine

A ndash carriage arrived to the storage destination (end of translation down)

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

WP3 T 36 Deliverables submitted

D307 Black-box for back up and data transmission (prototypes and report)Delivery Date January 2017

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

bull The overall goal of the task T36 was to build a prototype of portable internal

powered black-box for dailyweekly data back-up and for data transmission in

areas without GPRS coverage

bull The system had to integrate several hardware and software modules developed

independently by different partners within several working packages

bull The unified transmission protocols properly defined data structures and

overall compatibility of different components had to be established

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Integration of automatic RFID reading with the SLOPE software

Reading of tree RFID tag by the processor is extremely important bull to visualize the recommended cross-cutting of treebull for updating the JSON file (tree status) to be uploaded to the FIS

Three modules were created used specifically forbull identifying ID of tree harvested in the forest by the intelligent cable crane

during its transportation from the site to the storagebull identifying ID of tree to be processed by the intelligent processor bull identifying RFID of the newly created log after inserting new tag by the

machine

A ndash carriage arrived to the storage destination (end of translation down)

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Testing on the field Further improvements of the system have been done

in WP6 and WP7 to improve the integration with the whole system in a real scenario Monte Sover testing showed that the software stored

some unnecessary data in the SLOPE DB and a wrong formatting problem with the loading state of the truck

These problems were solved before the next test on Annaberg where the system worked successfully

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

Integration of automatic RFID reading with the SLOPE software

Reading of tree RFID tag by the processor is extremely important bull to visualize the recommended cross-cutting of treebull for updating the JSON file (tree status) to be uploaded to the FIS

Three modules were created used specifically forbull identifying ID of tree harvested in the forest by the intelligent cable crane

during its transportation from the site to the storagebull identifying ID of tree to be processed by the intelligent processor bull identifying RFID of the newly created log after inserting new tag by the

machine

results

A B C D A A B C D

A ndash carriage arrived to the storage destination (end of translation down)

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

A ndash carriage arrived to the storage destination (end of translation down)

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

A ndash carriage arrived to the storage destination (end of translation down)

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

A ndash carriage arrived to the storage destination (end of translation down)

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

A ndash carriage arrived to the storage destination (end of translation down)

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

Integration of automatic RFID reading with the SLOPE software

Reading of tree RFID tag by the processor is extremely important bull to visualize the recommended cross-cutting of treebull for updating the JSON file (tree status) to be uploaded to the FIS

Three modules were created used specifically forbull identifying ID of tree harvested in the forest by the intelligent cable crane

during its transportation from the site to the storagebull identifying ID of tree to be processed by the intelligent processor bull identifying RFID of the newly created log after inserting new tag by the

machine

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

Integration of automatic RFID reading with the SLOPE software

Reading of tree RFID tag by the processor is extremely important bull to visualize the recommended cross-cutting of treebull for updating the JSON file (tree status) to be uploaded to the FIS

Three modules were created used specifically forbull identifying ID of tree harvested in the forest by the intelligent cable crane

during its transportation from the site to the storagebull identifying ID of tree to be processed by the intelligent processor bull identifying RFID of the newly created log after inserting new tag by the

machine

A ndash carriage arrived to the storage destination (end of translation down)

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Testing on the field Further improvements of the system have been done

in WP6 and WP7 to improve the integration with the whole system in a real scenario Monte Sover testing showed that the software stored

some unnecessary data in the SLOPE DB and a wrong formatting problem with the loading state of the truck

These problems were solved before the next test on Annaberg where the system worked successfully

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Integration of automatic RFID reading with the SLOPE software

Reading of tree RFID tag by the processor is extremely important bull to visualize the recommended cross-cutting of treebull for updating the JSON file (tree status) to be uploaded to the FIS

Three modules were created used specifically forbull identifying ID of tree harvested in the forest by the intelligent cable crane

during its transportation from the site to the storagebull identifying ID of tree to be processed by the intelligent processor bull identifying RFID of the newly created log after inserting new tag by the

machine

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

results

A B C D A A B C D

A ndash carriage arrived to the storage destination (end of translation down)

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Testing on the field Further improvements of the system have been done

in WP6 and WP7 to improve the integration with the whole system in a real scenario Monte Sover testing showed that the software stored

some unnecessary data in the SLOPE DB and a wrong formatting problem with the loading state of the truck

These problems were solved before the next test on Annaberg where the system worked successfully

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

Integration of automatic RFID reading with the SLOPE software

Reading of tree RFID tag by the processor is extremely important bull to visualize the recommended cross-cutting of treebull for updating the JSON file (tree status) to be uploaded to the FIS

Three modules were created used specifically forbull identifying ID of tree harvested in the forest by the intelligent cable crane

during its transportation from the site to the storagebull identifying ID of tree to be processed by the intelligent processor bull identifying RFID of the newly created log after inserting new tag by the

machine

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

Integration of automatic RFID reading with the SLOPE software

Reading of tree RFID tag by the processor is extremely important bull to visualize the recommended cross-cutting of treebull for updating the JSON file (tree status) to be uploaded to the FIS

Three modules were created used specifically forbull identifying ID of tree harvested in the forest by the intelligent cable crane

during its transportation from the site to the storagebull identifying ID of tree to be processed by the intelligent processor bull identifying RFID of the newly created log after inserting new tag by the

machine

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

Integration of automatic RFID reading with the SLOPE software

Reading of tree RFID tag by the processor is extremely important bull to visualize the recommended cross-cutting of treebull for updating the JSON file (tree status) to be uploaded to the FIS

Three modules were created used specifically forbull identifying ID of tree harvested in the forest by the intelligent cable crane

during its transportation from the site to the storagebull identifying ID of tree to be processed by the intelligent processor bull identifying RFID of the newly created log after inserting new tag by the

machine

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

A ndash carriage arrived to the storage destination (end of translation down)

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

Integration of automatic RFID reading with the SLOPE software

Reading of tree RFID tag by the processor is extremely important bull to visualize the recommended cross-cutting of treebull for updating the JSON file (tree status) to be uploaded to the FIS

Three modules were created used specifically forbull identifying ID of tree harvested in the forest by the intelligent cable crane

during its transportation from the site to the storagebull identifying ID of tree to be processed by the intelligent processor bull identifying RFID of the newly created log after inserting new tag by the

machine

A ndash carriage arrived to the storage destination (end of translation down)

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Integration of automatic RFID reading with the SLOPE software

Reading of tree RFID tag by the processor is extremely important bull to visualize the recommended cross-cutting of treebull for updating the JSON file (tree status) to be uploaded to the FIS

Three modules were created used specifically forbull identifying ID of tree harvested in the forest by the intelligent cable crane

during its transportation from the site to the storagebull identifying ID of tree to be processed by the intelligent processor bull identifying RFID of the newly created log after inserting new tag by the

machine

A ndash carriage arrived to the storage destination (end of translation down)

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

Integration of automatic RFID reading with the SLOPE software

Reading of tree RFID tag by the processor is extremely important bull to visualize the recommended cross-cutting of treebull for updating the JSON file (tree status) to be uploaded to the FIS

Three modules were created used specifically forbull identifying ID of tree harvested in the forest by the intelligent cable crane

during its transportation from the site to the storagebull identifying ID of tree to be processed by the intelligent processor bull identifying RFID of the newly created log after inserting new tag by the

machine

A ndash carriage arrived to the storage destination (end of translation down)

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

Integration of automatic RFID reading with the SLOPE software

Reading of tree RFID tag by the processor is extremely important bull to visualize the recommended cross-cutting of treebull for updating the JSON file (tree status) to be uploaded to the FIS

Three modules were created used specifically forbull identifying ID of tree harvested in the forest by the intelligent cable crane

during its transportation from the site to the storagebull identifying ID of tree to be processed by the intelligent processor bull identifying RFID of the newly created log after inserting new tag by the

machine

A ndash carriage arrived to the storage destination (end of translation down)

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

Integration of automatic RFID reading with the SLOPE software

Reading of tree RFID tag by the processor is extremely important bull to visualize the recommended cross-cutting of treebull for updating the JSON file (tree status) to be uploaded to the FIS

Three modules were created used specifically forbull identifying ID of tree harvested in the forest by the intelligent cable crane

during its transportation from the site to the storagebull identifying ID of tree to be processed by the intelligent processor bull identifying RFID of the newly created log after inserting new tag by the

machine

A ndash carriage arrived to the storage destination (end of translation down)

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

Integration of automatic RFID reading with the SLOPE software

Reading of tree RFID tag by the processor is extremely important bull to visualize the recommended cross-cutting of treebull for updating the JSON file (tree status) to be uploaded to the FIS

Three modules were created used specifically forbull identifying ID of tree harvested in the forest by the intelligent cable crane

during its transportation from the site to the storagebull identifying ID of tree to be processed by the intelligent processor bull identifying RFID of the newly created log after inserting new tag by the

machine

A ndash carriage arrived to the storage destination (end of translation down)

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

Integration of automatic RFID reading with the SLOPE software

Reading of tree RFID tag by the processor is extremely important bull to visualize the recommended cross-cutting of treebull for updating the JSON file (tree status) to be uploaded to the FIS

Three modules were created used specifically forbull identifying ID of tree harvested in the forest by the intelligent cable crane

during its transportation from the site to the storagebull identifying ID of tree to be processed by the intelligent processor bull identifying RFID of the newly created log after inserting new tag by the

machine

A ndash carriage arrived to the storage destination (end of translation down)

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

bull The overall goal of the task T36 was to build a prototype of portable internal

powered black-box for dailyweekly data back-up and for data transmission in

areas without GPRS coverage

bull The system had to integrate several hardware and software modules developed

independently by different partners within several working packages

bull The unified transmission protocols properly defined data structures and

overall compatibility of different components had to be established

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

bull The overall goal of the task T36 was to build a prototype of portable internal

powered black-box for dailyweekly data back-up and for data transmission in

areas without GPRS coverage

bull The system had to integrate several hardware and software modules developed

independently by different partners within several working packages

bull The unified transmission protocols properly defined data structures and

overall compatibility of different components had to be established

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Integration of automatic RFID reading with the SLOPE software

Reading of tree RFID tag by the processor is extremely important bull to visualize the recommended cross-cutting of treebull for updating the JSON file (tree status) to be uploaded to the FIS

Three modules were created used specifically forbull identifying ID of tree harvested in the forest by the intelligent cable crane

during its transportation from the site to the storagebull identifying ID of tree to be processed by the intelligent processor bull identifying RFID of the newly created log after inserting new tag by the

machine

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

bull The overall goal of the task T36 was to build a prototype of portable internal

powered black-box for dailyweekly data back-up and for data transmission in

areas without GPRS coverage

bull The system had to integrate several hardware and software modules developed

independently by different partners within several working packages

bull The unified transmission protocols properly defined data structures and

overall compatibility of different components had to be established

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

bull The overall goal of the task T36 was to build a prototype of portable internal

powered black-box for dailyweekly data back-up and for data transmission in

areas without GPRS coverage

bull The system had to integrate several hardware and software modules developed

independently by different partners within several working packages

bull The unified transmission protocols properly defined data structures and

overall compatibility of different components had to be established

Integration of automatic RFID reading with the SLOPE software

Reading of tree RFID tag by the processor is extremely important bull to visualize the recommended cross-cutting of treebull for updating the JSON file (tree status) to be uploaded to the FIS

Three modules were created used specifically forbull identifying ID of tree harvested in the forest by the intelligent cable crane

during its transportation from the site to the storagebull identifying ID of tree to be processed by the intelligent processor bull identifying RFID of the newly created log after inserting new tag by the

machine

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

Testing on the field Further improvements of the system have been done

in WP6 and WP7 to improve the integration with the whole system in a real scenario Monte Sover testing showed that the software stored

some unnecessary data in the SLOPE DB and a wrong formatting problem with the loading state of the truck

These problems were solved before the next test on Annaberg where the system worked successfully

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Integration of the SLOPE software with FIS

Two most important utilities of the data management and back-up system includebull downloading of the information from the FIS regarding marked trees and

cross-cutting simulationbull uploading progress of operations and resulting logrsquos quality(ies) indexes

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

FIS Downloading of data Downloading of data may be performed twofold

by means of GPRS service or any other Internet-based method possible only in a case the access to the network is available on the production site

by using any digital data storage (such as CD-ROM memory cardstick portable hard disk among the others) possible to be implemented anytime assuming that the operator is capable to connect to the internet after the working hours

Integration of automatic RFID reading with the SLOPE software

Reading of tree RFID tag by the processor is extremely important bull to visualize the recommended cross-cutting of treebull for updating the JSON file (tree status) to be uploaded to the FIS

Three modules were created used specifically forbull identifying ID of tree harvested in the forest by the intelligent cable crane

during its transportation from the site to the storagebull identifying ID of tree to be processed by the intelligent processor bull identifying RFID of the newly created log after inserting new tag by the

machine

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option

Information acquired

time series of the machine statuses extracted from JSONbull time stampbull working cycle IDbull cable crane position along the linebull velocity of the cable crane

movementbull tilting of the carriage regarding the

movement directionbull side tilting of the carriagebull fuel consumptionbull weight of the transported

treesbiomassbull status of the liftbull status of the choker

Raw data from cable crane

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

results

A B C D A A B C D

A ndash carriage arrived to the storage destination (end of translation down)

B ndash end of handling logs at the arrival (the carriage starts travel back to the forest)

C - the carriage arrived to the location in forest and the process of installing logs begin (the carriage is not moving but lifting is down)

D ndash the process of installing logs is finished the operator adjusts the position of the carriage and lifts up logs as well as send the carriage back to the storage destination

NoteIt is possible to estimate the load of logs before arriving to the storage destination (A)

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Conclusionsbull it is a pioneer and original work (especially considering its

complexity and harsh working environment)bull all subsystems developed by different partners were

compatible bull all the expected functionalities and the developed software

solutions are suitable for quantification of the log quality in objective and repetitive way

bull both SLOPE project in-field demonstrations were precious to test the system and to improve technical solutions applied

bull The current state of development is a solid proof of concept further field tests are indispensable for final tuning of the routine procedures

Final Review Meeting 1 Feb 17

Recommendations

bull the safety of the data as well as capacity of the processor operators is an issue

bull optimize the RFID antenna location and more refined processing of the raw data acquired by antenna

bull it is extremely important to test the system by forest operators bull integration to more robust data transmission technologies

(satellite) can be considered as an option
