Forestry and environment

See the stand. Assess what the data can tell you.

Review forestry maps and point clouds in context. Discuss a pilot for tree measurements and stand summaries, with field calibration part of the scope.

Forestry analytics: in development

Start with your team’s review task.

Hosted maps and point clouds provide a shared view of the site. Forestry analytics remain in development. Pilot inventory estimates require review and project-specific field calibration.

  • Stand and terrain context
  • Vegetation survey review
  • A scoped tree-measurement pilot
  • Calibration and inventory feasibility

Understand the terrain

Review the supplied point cloud and map for canopy, ground and site context.

Define the pilot

Agree on feasible tree and stand measures for the LiDAR coverage and resolution available.

Plan field calibration

Use field references to assess pilot measurements. Treat uncalibrated inventory outputs as relative estimates.
