3rd INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM OF FOREST ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGIES (FETEC 2022)

Forest Transportation Solutions and IT Applications for Natural Disaster Management

28-29 November 2022

Baku, Azerbaijan

45A, Khagani St, “Landmark 2” Business Center

Symposium Rationale

As one of the most important natural resources, forests have vital functions such as improving biodiversity, preserving soil, protecting water, and providing services to society. In order to maintain these functions, forest should be planned and managed by considering social, economic, ecological, and sociocultural factors. In recent years, natural disasters caused by abiotic factors result in serious biological and ecological damages on forest ecosystems while threatening the human life. The most effective natural disasters may include forest fires, winter storms, floods, landslides, and avalanches.

In order to minimize the detrimental effects of natural disasters, advanced information technologies (ITs) such as GIS, RS, ICT, IoT, etc. should be used in planning and implementing of natural disaster management activities. Besides, forest roads, providing important benefits of accessing forest areas, should be designed and constructed considering the natural disasters. 

3rd International Symposium of Forest Engineering and Technologies (FETEC 2022): Forest Transportation Solutions and IT Applications for Natural Disaster Management” will be organized on 28-29 November 2022 by Space Agency of the Republic of Azerbaijan (Azercosmos) in the city of Baku, Azerbaijan as hybrid symposium with both online and face-to-face participation. The symposium co-organizers include GDF (General Directorate of Forestry, Turkey), IUFRO Division 3.0 and FETEC Platform
