SAXMEL Operational Group: Development of a system to boost a forest resource in Galicia

This Operational Group was created to develop a novel, comprehensive forest management support system based on a local-level model that aims to comprehensively energize and enhance the value of forest resources across multiple economic, social, and cultural areas. The goal is to establish a local technical service that will coordinate, support, and incentivize the enhancement of the resource at the local level.

At the territorial level, the project demonstrates the viability of the proposed model with tangible and measurable results through indicators. It directly contributes to innovation in a key strategic sector in Galicia, comprehensively mobilizing the forestry production sector and providing it with a highly efficient tool designed for Galicia. It implements an interface between all stakeholders in the sector: owners, forestry communities, public administrations, associations, companies, entrepreneurs, citizens, researchers, investors, etc., enabling them to launch supply chains, improve the production structure, reduce costs, and mobilize resources that were previously unused.
