| Abstract [eng] |
This paper looks at the incorporation of blockchain and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies into Forest 4.0, a sector that harnesses advanced tools such as artificial intelligence and big data for efficient and sustainable forest monitoring and management. The synergy of blockchain and IoT has gained significant attention, offering a secure and decentralized framework for data management, traceability, and supply chain oversight. The provided use cases demonstrate how these technologies improve forest practices, with insight into smart contract implementation and decentralized systems for sustainable forest management. The major findings imply that digital technologies such as blockchain, IoT, AI, WSNs, etc. can help improve forest management sustainability, efficiency and transparency, and integration of these technologies can provide significant information for decision-making and resource allocation, as well as improve supply chain transparency and sustainable forest practices. |
