Regional Plans of Forest Development (RPFD) - Forest Site Typology
Forest site typology as a basic discipline of forest management, deals with the classification of permanent ecological conditions, ie. division of forests into segments with similar growth conditions to assess the environmental conditions and to draw appropriate conclusions for forestry management.
The aim of the forest site classification is to derive the growth conditions on the basis of causal relations between vegetation, the main elements of physical-geographical, geological and climatical sphere.
The outputs of forest site classification serves as a basis for determining the economic measures, and operational and production goals (Forest management plans, forest management scheme). The importance of the outputs of forest typology was further strengthened in the new political-economic-environmental conditions, which has also become the basis for the evaluation functions of forest ecosystems, forest valuation, or the creation of management plans for specially protected areas.
Tool for the classification of environmental conditions is the Forest site classification system that describes the ecosystems with the potential vegetation.The major differentiation within the ecological conditions are Vegetation tiers (altitudinal vegetation zones) (taking into account the gradient of vertical zoning of vegetation) and edaphic categories (reflecting a gradient of trophic conditions and hydricity).
Elementary unit is a forest site type (FST). FST are affiliate according to ecological affinity to Forest site type complexes.

Forest site type classification deals determination of units in all segments of the forest landscape. Units describes the potential vegetation. The purpose of the classification is classification in relation to natural conditions in terms of vertical zoning, and trophic conditions and hydricity into units of forest-typological classification system. The result is a forest-typological map that recorded all the forests. All units are processed in characteristics of the units with the knowledge of the variability of phytocenoses in variety stands and in stages, the findings on growth regularities expressed in the growth curves of individual tree species and even some practical conclusions, owing to operational objectives. On the base of forest-typological map is derived forest map categories, because some units determinate directly the category of forests. By combination of similar units are established the basic unit of forest management - management files. Forest-typological investigations are conducted on representative plots, where it is described the tree and shrub components, composition of undergrowth vegetation, form of humus and soil conditions. Complementing of this basic investigation are laboratory soil analysis for selected areas, dendrometrické measurements in forests close to the target structure and the investigation focused on the practical application of forest-typological work (Silviculture, Genetics, amelioration, the doctrine of the production).

The application of Forest site classification system carried out by staff of the Forest Management Institute in Brandýs nad Labem. They carry out the classification of forest land In the field, designated for forestry, as well as carrying out field monitoring of forest environment on the forest site permanent plots. In the field they collect data using phytocenological relevés and soil sampling. Data are updated annually.
