Portalul online este o metodă automată de identificare a transporturilor de lemn tăiate ilegal din România. Utilizatorii pot observa alerte de la sateliți care indică informații și o dată la câteva zile (între 2 și 7 zile în funcție de satelit) orice modificare a imaginii aeriene asociat cu vegetația forestieră din România. Portalul accesează și baza de date SUMAL a Ministerului Apelor și Pădurilor în timp real. Din această bază de date, sunt extrase informații pentru a fi procesate în sistemul intern, despre documentele de îmbunătățire a recoltelor de lemn, locațiile de unde sunt încărcate transporturile de lemn și informațiile legate de aceste puncte. Permisele privind recoltarea lemnului au fost digitalizate, prin urmare, toată activitatea de recoltare poate fi verificată prin monitorizare prin satelit, în timp ce transporturile trebuie să obțină un cod unic înainte de a părăsi locul de încărcare. codul este obținut numai după ce informațiile de transport au fost introduse în sistem, inclusiv locația în care c a fost solicitată oda.
Portalul, prin dezvoltări ulterioare, conține și un API (set învățat de reguli), care permite accesul automat la toate informațiile prezentate public pe acest portal (straturi, coordonate de transport și metadate conexe, documente de îmbunătățire etc.), astfel încât alte persoane interesate actorii pot face analize care vor duce la oprirea exploatării ilegale. "

Datorită TimFlow este posibil verificarea dacă lemnul exploatat este legal, dacă companiile furnizoare  îndeplinesc cerințele sistemului de due diligence al companiei;  dacă lemnul provine sau nu din zonele tampon ale parcurilor naționale sau din alte zone în care intervenția nu este permisă. Cea mai importantă calitate a sistemului Timflow este nivelul de transparență fără precedent. Toate datele GPS colectate sunt disponibile publicului pe portal și în limba engleză, ceea ce permite părților interesate locale și internaționale să verifice livrările de jurnal. Utilizatorii pot verifica prin Timflow:
- toate transporturile din țară din ultimele 12 luni care au ajuns la porțile gaterelor HS Timber Productions din România;
- informații despre documentele de transport;
- fotografii ale încărcăturii;
- trasee de camioane;
- în plus, utilizatorii pot solicita copii ale documentelor de transport.
În plus, utilizatorii pot solicita copii ale documentelor de transport. Cu ajutorul Timflow, HS Timber Group se asigură că toate expedierile sunt legale, îndeplinesc cerințele sistemului Due Diligence și că lemnul încărcat nu provine din zonele tampon ale parcurilor naționale . Timflow este o parte importantă a sistemului Due Diligence al HS Timber Group, care susține cu fermitate eforturile grupului de a reduce riscul de cherestea neconformă în lanțul de aprovizionare

FOVEA offers an innovative all-in-one solution for digital logging of wood: With the “iFOVEA Pro” app, wooden piles of any size can be measured in a few minutes using the latest image processing technology. In addition, the forest management system (FMS) supports the inventory and logistics of wood quantities as extensive online software. The iFOVEA app provides different measurement methods depending on the requirements:

• Photo-optical measurement for plywood piles (number, solid cubic meters and cubic meters)
• Photo-optical measurement for industrial wood (outline and cubic meter)
• Photo-optical measurement for trucks (number, solid cubic meters and cubic meters)
• Data acquisition for long timber
• Manual section procedure with and without line sampling

The calculation of all measured values takes place directly on the smartphone or tablet and does not require an internet connection in the forest. With numerous configuration options, each measurement method can be individually adapted. With the Forest Management System (FMS), the measured data can be easily managed online. In addition to an extensive wood inventory, the system offers a map function and options for invoicing and automatic calculation of wood prices.

LogBuch enables data aggregation in the forest, a simple evaluation of the data and further processing.  The combination of voice recording and Bluetooth button enables hands-free precise location of trees with simultaneous recording of important information about the tree, such as safety instructions or planning working procedures. The expected cut volume can be determined, and assortments planned. Foresters and harvester operators both receive detailed information (cross-linking with third party systems is supported). Technology: An A 2-frequency GNSS-receiver is connected to a smartphone to estimate the current position. A bluetooth button is used for language analysis. All spoken information can be recorded, automatically transcribed and classified, and the actual position lodged. WLAN is used for data exchange between smartphone, webserver and other users. Data can be exported as a map or table in georeferenced or not referenced formats (xlsx, GeoJson, shp, GPX, map). Applications: Preparation of timber harvesting, establishment of a digital "inventory", area mapping (also planting) by connecting recorded corner points, mapping of skid trails by the line function (harvest control or certification basis), remote navigation via Google Maps. In addition, recording of habitat trees etc., support for hunting organization (high seats, driven hunt stands, stalking routes etc.) and traffic safety measures.

 The online portal is an automatic method for identifying illegally cut timber transports from Romania. The users are able to observe alerts from satellites indicating information and once every few days (between 2 and 7 days depending on the satellite) any change in the aerial image associated with the forest vegetation in Romania. The portal also accesses the SUMAL database of the Ministry of Water and Forests in real time. From this database, information is extracted to be processed in the internal system, about the enhancement documents on wood harvests, the locations from where the timber transports are loaded and the information related to these points.The permits on wood harvest became digitalized, therefore all harvesting activity can be checked by satellite monitoring while the transports must obtain a unique code before leaving the place of loading. This code is only obtained after the transport information has been entered into the system, including the location where the code was requested.
The portal, through further developments, also contains an API (set learned of rules), which allows automatic access to all information publicly presented on this portal (layers, transport coordinates and related metadata, enhancement documents, etc.), so that other interested actors can make analyzes that will lead to stopping illegal logging.

Thanks to TimFlow it is possible to check if the exploited wood is legal, if the supplier companies meet the requirements of the company's Due Dilligence system; Whether or not the wood comes from buffer zones of national parks or from other areas where intervention is not allowed. The most important quality of the Timflow system is the unprecedented level of transparency. All GPS data collected is publicly available on the portal also in English, which allows local and international stakeholders to check log shipments. Users can check via Timflow:

• all transports in the country from the last 12 months which have reached the gates of HS Timber Productions’ sawmills in Romania;
• information on transport documents;
• photos of the cargo;
• truck routes;
• in addition, users can request copies of the transport documents.

In addition, users can request copies of the transport documents.With the help of Timflow, HS Timber Group ensures that all shipments are legal, meet the requirements of the Due Diligence system and that the loaded timber does not come from buffer zones of national parks. Timflow is an important part of HS Timber Group's Due Diligence system, which strongly supports the group's efforts to reduce the risk of non-compliant timber in the supply chain. 

The application started in April 2017, the number of registered users grew 60% in the first two months following the update, and the number of transports checked on the platform surpassed the 3,000 mark – a growth of 75%. In 2017 over the first six months in operation, Timflow has recorded real-life data from all the trucks delivering logs to the first company implementing the traceability system. This includes the precise routes of the transports, a reference to the documents of origin and photos of the cargo. For each of the 16,000 transports (as of October 2017) a unique dataset is stored securely on the Timflow servers.
