CASE STUDY: Forestry Assessment

Working with one of the largest forestry management companies in Australia, Scout Aerial has provided multiple surveys for yield assessment, canopy and growth monitoring and fire damage assessment.

CLIENT: HQ Plantations

LOCATION: Queensland, Australia

SERVICES: Aerial Survey for yield & growth rates, fire damage and harvest expectations

PROJECT SUMMARY:  Sustainable Forestry management has become a major concern in Australia. We work closely with large forestry management groups to develop sustainable solutions across the board. Aerial data provides a wealth of information (Yield, growth rates, fire damage and harvest expectations) that assists the management teams with information for critical decision making. Our high accuracy (2.5cm) mapping helps when growth forecasts and damage assessments need to be made rapidly. We can deploy within a very short time for critical fire/storm damage assessments.

• Fire damage assessment (as a percentage/volume/growth rate)
• Yield Assessments
• Canopy mapping
• Weed management
• Plant health indication
• Coppice management
• Drainage Planning
• Stock Density
