PRELIMINARY ALTERNATE HARVEST SYSTEMS ANALYSIS
In order to determine the best possible recommendation for our client, we analyze several different harvest systems. Typically, this includes a comparison between long span and short span cable systems, helicopter systems, and ground systems. The alternate harvest systems analysis is closely related to the preliminary setting design, because it often involves the same procedures to determine the potential for using alternatives. In short, the preliminary alternate harvest systems analysis consists of doing preliminary setting designs for all of the different harvest systems to be analyzed.
