Abstract
In the last decades there has been an increasing number of forest models developed for the main species of the
Portuguese forest. Forest models support management decisions by predicting long term stand development under
alternative scenarios and taking into account all the components of the ecosystem. However, in most cases, there is a
gap between the models developed and their application by decision-makers.
The platform for Portuguese Forest Simulators (sIMfLOR) tries to overcome this gap integrating a wide variety of forest
models into simulators and providing a baseline tool for forest managers in Portugal. As an integrated modular platform, sIMfLOR
makes available forest simulators for the Portuguese forest with user-friendly interfaces to facilitate the introduction of the information
for the simulators. The platform displays stand and regional simulators, interfaces to generate required inputs and also
auxiliary tools. As the platform focus on end-users, it allows visualization of the simulators outputs in default graphics which
can easily be edited by users. The sIMfLOR platform can be permanently accessed at http://www.isa.utl.pt/cef/forchange/fctools.
