Keskusmuotoluvun perusteita tukkien ja kuitupuun mittauksessa.

English title: Foundations of middle form factor in the measurement of logs and pulpwood

Abstract

In this literature review some error possibilities in the measurement of solid volume of logs and pulpwood are discussed. Although both underestimation and overestimation can occur for various reasons it seems likely that in the stereometric measurement method the real volume is underestimated, at least when Huber’s formula is applied, and the respective middle form factors are too low. Numerous results of empirical investigations are presented in the paper, too.

The PDF includes a summary in English.
