Abstract
The Surface II computer graphics program is used to generate stereoscopic representations of a forest stand that can be viewed in 3-dimensions. Any number of forest clearcuts can be inserted into the drawings which can be viewed from any vantage point outside the forest stand. Sample drawings depicting the Barnaby Center near Lancaster, Ohio, as it might be viewed from various angles and elevations are included to demonstrate the applicability of this system to the field of Forestry.
