Woodfuel Integrated Supply/Demand Overview Mapping (WISDOM) is a spatially-explicit method for highlighting and determining woodfuel priority areas or “woodfuel hot spots”. It is oriented to support strategic planning and policy formulation, through the integration and analysis of existing demand and supply related information and indicators.

Rather than absolute and quantitative data, WISDOM is meant to provide relative/qualitative values such as risk zoning or criticality ranking, highlighting, at the highest possible spatial detail, the areas deserving urgent attention and, if needed, additional data collection. So, it could serve as an assessing and strategic planning tool to identify priority places for action.
