Summary/Abstract: The forest road is a permanent communication route which includes all the works related to the optimal development of the traffic: bridges, signs, consolidation works or any other constructions or arrangements included in the forest road project. Considering the location of these communication routes, as well as the natural and anthropic factors that influence their lifespan, through this project we aimed to present the usefulness of topographic works for raising and tracking the action of natural phenomena that influence the infrastructure of a exploitation road. These works have the role of providing a more detailed and precise digital terrain model of the situation in order to develop constructive technical solutions to counteract the destructive activity of these phenomena.
