Introduction

MosaicMill has developed tree wise forest inventory where no traditional field measurements are required - applying our novel methodology each tree is located and measured from UAV data. MosaicMill inventory method is applicable for both plantations and managed natural forest. With UAV data it is also possible to replace traditional sample plot measurements in large scale forest inventories.In case of unmanaged natural forest, please send us sample images for evaluation. We process your UAV camera or LiDAR data into inventory results including results for each tree: Treewise results are summarized by stand using existing stand boundaries or new ones extracted from fresh imagery.

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. The service options are:

    LEVEL 1
    LEVEL 2
    LEVEL 3
    LEVEL 4

Tree maps are delivered in most common GIS formats, thus immediately available for further processing. We are also able to generate forest management plans with scenarios for future wood and cash flows.

Forest valuation and forestry plan

We can process treewise results into property / plantation level inventory results. Forest valuation reports and forest management plans with different optimization alternatives can be processed within AFRY X Smart Forestry pipeline.
