Abstract

The tariff tables presented here are based on the measurements of the National Forest Inventory (NFI). In the methodical section model derivations are explained and the formulas are presented in a reproducible manner. The table section contains tariffs for each main tree species and for each production region (Jura, Plateau, Pre-Alps, Alps, Southern Alps) for the bole volume and for proportions of merchantable timber. The tariffs give unbiased results for large regions (production regions).
