A method for operating forestry machinery includes providing timber units with forestry machines and an operation processor. The method also includes detecting or receiving data from an information source, where the data includes worksite preparation data, navigation data, or worksite situation data. The data is processed by the operation processor and operation parameters of the forestry machine are set based on the processing of the data. The method further includes communicating instructions to the forestry machine by the operation processor, where the instructions include the operation parameters.
