The project provides quantitative, spatial, evidence-based planning support to developing countries that are parties to the CBD in order to facilitate the realization of forest restoration pledges and targets.

WePlan - Forests is a spatially explicit, forest restoration planning tool that uses linear programming to evaluate a range of alternative scenarios for restoration, reporting the benefits, costs and spatial distribution of national restoration priorities for each.

The analysis also considers (as constraints) the opportunity and implementation costs of forest restoration, accounting for the potential for natural regeneration to reduce implementation costs.

Analyses occur at a 1 km^2 resolution on a national basis, for countries containing tropical and subtropical forests within +/- 25 degrees latitude. Scenarios are offered in five levels of restoration targets, ranging from 10 percent to 50 percent of the areas available for restoration.

The output will be found in your **SEPAL files** under :code:`module_results/weplan/<iso_code>` with :code:`iso_code` being the `ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-3>`__ code of the downloaded country (e.g. "UGA" for Uganda).

Every file is in :code:`.tif` format with one single band expressing the variable described. It will display the version of the WePlan - Forests computation (here "v002", called :code:`<version>` from now on).
