Abstract
Applications of remote sensing (RS), global positioning system (GPS), geographic information system (GIS) and combination of three-S techniques in the forest management are introduced. It indicates that, with the quickly improvement of the computer technique, the three-S system will become a very important part of the forestry management system.
