Abstract

A system assists during felling of a tree. A provision device provides a property of the tree and/or a property of an environment of the tree, identifies at least part of a course of a cut in the tree for felling the tree and/or identifies a position and/or an orientation of a cutting apparatus executing the cut. A determination device obtains felling information related to an ideal felling direction of the tree, compares the identified part of the course to an obtained part of an ideal course of a cut to be executed in the tree for felling the tree in the ideal felling direction, compares the identified position and/or the identified orientation of the cutting apparatus to an obtained ideal position and/or an obtained ideal orientation of the cutting apparatus, and obtains cutting information based on the comparison. An output device outputs the obtained felling information and cutting information.
