The Landscape Management System (LMS) software is implemented as a Microsoft Windows application that coordinates the activities of other programs (growth models, visualization tools, etc.) that makeup the overall system. LMS is comprised of many separate programs that make growth estimates, produce tabular and graphical displays, store inventory informaiton, and connect these diverse programs into a cohesive system. The following applications are included as important parts of LMS:

• LMS uses EnVision for landscape level visualization
• LMS uses the Forest Vegetation Simulator (FVS) for estimate tree growth throughout the United States
• LMS can use the Organon growth model for tree growth estimaes in the Pacific Northwest
• LMS uses the Python programming language for the implementation of some analysis and tabular outputs.
• LMS uses the Stand Visualization System (SVS) for stand level visualization
