ABSTRACT
This study aimed to determine the wood stock through systematic sampling and geoinformation technologies in order to elaborate maps of forest productivity as a forest post-stratification inventory. We positioned 24 plots of 625 m2 each ina distance of 70 m from each other. The yield map was generated after selecting a model for semivariogram adjustment between volumes in the plots. A 3,753.9 m3 total volume was estimated in the forest inventory through systematic sampling, while the yield map produced with precision forestry techniques showed a total volume of 3,768.9 m3. The analysis of variance showed that there is a significant difference between the means of the strata and based on this fact, the estimates were generated per stratum, then the total volume of 3,772.9 m3 was estimated. The precision forestry technique proved to be an efficient tool in the post-stratification of forest inventories.
