		+	What types of workflow or features are required for managing forests? Think broad, and then we can get into specifics in each category.
		+
		+	=== GPS traversing ===
		+	General data capture to record paths, boundaries and locations using GPS.
		+	* Ability to turn it on/off
		+	* Ability to capture multiple types of features
		+
		+	=== Design and capture ===
		+	Block, road, treatment areas
		+	* Connect various attributes to GPS collected information
		+	* Custom input forms
		+
		+	=== Mobile map platform ===
		+	Following current and planned locations
		+	* Map layer control on/off
		+	* Zoom, pan, query
		+	* Basic feature calculations - length, area, sum attributes
		+	* Show GPS,
		+	* Auto panning map via GPS
		+	* Edit stand boundary and sale boundary shapefiles
		+
		+	=== Inventory collection and analysis ===
		+	Backend database and front end collection of inventory details
		+	* Offline database, with inventory schema
		+	* Platform for mobile data collection and input
		+	* Auto form generation for particular feature types
		+	* Syncing with master db when back online
		+	* Generation of reports such as stand tables, stocking tables, and associated information.
		+	* Predict future devlopment of standing volume etc.
		+	* Perform economic analysis with specifed user input
		+	* Ability to calibrate based on localized growth and yield tables.
		+	* Support for a varity of cruise methods. (Point, fixed plot, etc.)
		+	* Support for a variety of volume tables. (Scribner, Doyle, International 1/4, Carlson Method).
		+
		+	=== Sample plot reconnaissance and survey ===
		+	* Generate plot schemes based on sampling intensity needs, and other input criteria (random vs. systematic, etc).
		+	** Zig Zag schema based on tract width/length.
		+	* Relate/connect plot/survey locations with inventory to allow for plot re-use in subsequent more intensive sampling efforts.
		+
		+	=== Terrain/slope/area/distance computation and measurements ===
		+	* Ability to work in, use and display acres/hectares rather than just sq ft/m and miles/km.
		+
		+	=== Time-analysis ===
		+	* What has the development of the different stands been over the years?
		+	* Compare pictures taken previously to visualize changes
		+	* Linking stands over time (splitting, changing borders)
		+	* Change detection
		+	** [http://gis-lab.info/qa/dtclassifier-eng.html#04 DTclassifier plugin]
		+
		+	=== Surveying ===
		+	* From old style surveying techniques, calculate positions of corners/markers in GPS datum

 # I'm up to my ears in work at the moment but want to participate as soon as time permits (hopefully in a couple of months. It's a fantastic idea with lots of potential.My name is Jake and I'm a forester in Orland Maine. Nice meeting you all.
