The IT4forest team is a group of voluntarily cooperating scientists, lecturers and students. We are united by a common interest in forests and information technology. All of us work, research or teach at the faculty of Forest and Environment at the University for Sustainable Development in Eberswalde (German acronym HNEE). This webpage documents our personal efforts and the achievement of our students. It is not be understood as an official page of HNEE. Its contents are the sole responsibility of the It4Forest team.

We see the use of digital technologies and media as an innovation and obligation for our future-oriented university teaching. Since digital technologies are a natural part of (young) people's lives, we want to introduce students to the reflected and professional use of new media and forms of communication for education and science. Digitalisation is both an opportunity and a challenge for teaching and studying forest related and environmental sciences.
