Accurate Forest inventory
Delivering accurate forest inventory estimates is our core business. We offer various mensuration services ranging from yield class assessments to full tree tariffs, with abbreviated volume assessments the most sought after service. A volume assessment can inform decisions on planning, sales, purchases and crop growth and is critical for both sustainable timber management and for confidence when buying or selling.

Licensed UAV Operations
We utilise UAV technology (drones) to capture site data to aid in various forest operations. A high resolution, up to date aerial image of a forest improves the understanding of a crop and can aid in stratification, harvesting planning and many other aspects of planning and operations. We can generate large, georeferenced aerial images, elevation models, terrain data and three-dimensional models of a forest. For more information click here.
