The Swiss nature conservation policy aims at the promotion of biodiversity. This requires reliable information on the development of forests, too. The second National Forest Inventory (NFI) survey (1993-95) will provide, among other ecological data, for the first time naionwide information on forest margins. First results with data from 1993 have shown that the NFI sampling methode is suitable for collecting reproducible data concerning diversity of ligneous species.
