Dr. Jakub Sandak, InnoRenew CoE researcher, together with colleagues Gerhard Pichler, Maximilian Kastner, Karl Stampfer and Martin Kühmaier from the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Gianni Picchi from Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche—Istituto per la BioEconomia, and Diego Graifenberg from Greifenberg Teleferiche SAS, recently published an scientific article »Timber Tracking in a Mountain Forest Supply Chain: A Case Study to Analyze Functionality, Bottlenecks, Risks, and Costs«, in Forests.

Results of the presented research show that the new system, namely the integrated Radio Frequency Identification technology with digital survey tools and intelligent machines, into a smart timber supply chain, is useful for transferring information through the timber supply chain, and the system costs remained at a normal market level.
