A method for management of a land base includes interfacing a machine or equipment to a computer running a geographical information system (GIS) application such that the computer is configured to monitor the operations performed by the equipment or machine on the land base and store the operations as map points, lines, or polygons on at least one data layer within the GIS application. The method further includes displaying the GIS application to the operator at the point and time of performing the operations.

The invention relates to a method in a weighing system, in which method the mass of the bundle is weighed and recorded during both loading % and unloading m.sub.i_p of the bundle, during loading, the total loading mass m.sub.K_kok_j is calculated from the mass m.sub.i_c of one or more bundles weighed during loading and corrected using a correction factor C.sub.j, the total unloading mass m.sub.p_kok_j is calculated from the mass m.sub.i_p of one or more bundles weighed during unloading, with the aid of the said total loading mass m.sub.K_COk_j and total unloading mass m.sub.p_kok_j, a new corrected value Cj+1 is calculated for the correction factor C.sub.j in order to adjust the weighing for the loading of the next load K.sub.j+1. The invention also relates to a corresponding software product, an arrangement, and a material-handling machine.

A method assists during felling of a tree. The method includes the steps of: providing a property of the tree and/or a property of an environment of the tree; obtaining felling information related to an ideal felling direction of the tree based on the provided property; and outputting the obtained felling information.

A material processing tool assembly includes a tool for material processing having a base section and a processing section extending from the base section; and a tool mounting block mountable on an outer surface of a support base. The mounting block has a base surface and a tool mounting surface intersecting the base surface. The base surface has a protuberance extending away therefrom and spaced apart from the tool mounting surface to define a tool receiving gap between the protuberance and the tool mounting surface. The base section of the tool is snugly received in the tool receiving gap between the tool mounting surface and the protuberance in abutment with the tool mounting surface, the processing section of the tool extending past the protuberance. A displaceable material processing head and method of mounting a material processing tool to a mounting block secured to a displaceable head are also discussed.

A hitch attachment for dragging logs from a vehicle. The hitch attachment includes a base having a distal end and a proximal end. The proximal end of the base is configured to fit within a tow receiver of the vehicle. A vertical frame extends from the base in between the proximal end and the distal end. A log cradle is coupled to the distal end of the base. The log cradle includes a plurality of vertically extending teeth.
