**Small history of AWF-Wiki**
01.05.2010: A MediaWiki installation was set up by User:Fehrmann who initiated AWF-Wiki at the Chair of Forest Inventory and Remote Sensing at the Georg-August-Universität Göttingen. 20.04.2011: The lecture notes and a QGIS tutorial for our course "Remote sensing and image processing with open source software" are now completely available. Up to now we counted more than 50.000 views in our Wiki. 02.05.2011: We are working on the section Forest Inventory lecture notes. AWF-Wiki was presented to the actual Bachelor students. We have more than 78.000 page hits. 12.06.2011: Lecture notes in forest inventory completed. 16.06.2011: We reached more than 100.000 page hits! 08.12.2012: We reached more than 700.000 page hits! 16.06.2013: We are working on the remote sensing lecture notes. More than 1.000.000 page hits!

We will get a new Logo soon. The actual logo shows a voxel model of data from a terrestrial laser scanner and some overlaping inclusion zones of single trees. It was our first official logo but is in fact not very professional and not really "sexy".

We are working on the remote sensing lecture notes during the winter term. Limited funds are granted by the Faculty of Forest Science and Forest Ecology. As these funds are tuition fees of our students, they will be allocated to create course relevant content only!

Coming soon: a special issue on MRV in context of REDD+: How can IPCC Guidelines and national REDD requirements be translated into meaningful planning criteria for national forest inventories?
