Introduction
MosaicMill has developed tree wise forest inventory method and will start providing processing services in May-June 2018. No traditional field measurements are required - in this novel methodology each tree is located and measured from UAV data. Especially suitable tree inventory is for small and medium size forest properties. MosaicMill inventory method is applicable for both plantations and managed natural forest. In case of unmanaged natural forest, please send us sample images for evaluation. We process your UAV camera or LiDAR data into inventory results consisting of:- Location of each tree
- Height of each tree
- Canopy diameter / breast height diameter
- Species
- Management plan for the forest property
Service levels
We work together with your organization on the service level that you prefer. You carry out UAV survey and we take care of the rest. Or you can also take care of photogrammetric processing and we continue with tree interpretation. Service options are:

| Results of MosaicMill service | TREE LOCATIONS (X,Y) TREE HEIGHTS CANOPY/STEM DIAMETER | Level 1 + SPECIES | Level 2 + ORTHOMOSAIC DEM | Level 3 + UAV IMAGES |
| Data requirements from you | Point Cloud, 10 cm RGB Orthomosaic | Point Cloud, 10 cm VNIR Orthomosaic Sample trees | UAV images, 10 cm Sample trees | Nothing from you, we carry out also the flight |
Tree maps are delivered in ASCII (csv) and GIS (Esri shape) format. Thus they are immediately available for any further processing. MosaicMill with its partners is also able to generate forest management plans with alternative scenarios for future wood and cash flows. Contact Mosaicmill for details.
