Forestation — Forest types 2020

The Forest Type is a model for the classification of forest areas whose objective is the definition of floristic-ecological-forestry units to be used for the knowledge of forest phytocenosis, easily used for practical purposes for the definition of forestry interventions in spatial forest planning.It is a system with clear application purpose, simplified from the vegetative point of view and enriched with dendrometric and management information. The Forestry Typology of the Autonomous Region Valle d’Aosta was drawn up, developed and revised since 1998 as part of several Interreg projects which led to the creation of the volume “The Forest Types of Valle d’Aosta”. As part of the Renerfor project, in 2011, the first Forest Charter of the Autonomous Region Valle d’Aosta was implemented.In 2021, at the end of the service entrusted to the IPLA relating to the “Assessment of the potential for forest sectors from the forests of the Valle d’Aosta”, the new Forest Charter of the Valle d’Aosta was created with data for 2020.
