Forest Management Maps

Large-scale land assessments require scalable and cost-effective solutions. Satellite and application of smart algorithms have made such analysis more accessible.

A project site is analyzed for various reasons. The base map provides an overview of the natural conditions, the topographic map is used to analyze the terrain for access planning, a slope steepness map identifies sites that are not accessible for forest management activities, and the degradation map might appoint sites for regeneration.

The first step is to get the big picture of your forest operations or conservation projects. Details follow after initial analysis. – Stefan Haas, CEO Co-Founder, OpenForests
