More than 30 staff members from customs and CITES enforcement authorities as well as scientific institutions from five European countries took part in the workshop. The aim of the workshop was to learn about the identification of protected timber using the CITESwoodID app and to train its use in practice. The event also included a report on the extensive work of the Thünen Competence Centre for Wood Origin and a presentation of new methodological developments in the field of anatomical wood species identification (machine learning and computer tomography). The workshop also provided an important forum for an international exchange of experience.
