AI Solutions · Surveying · Data Platforms

Most AI lives in the cloud.
Ours works in the field.

We replace manual field surveys with AI that runs on-site - drone data capture to vision models for timber yield, footfall, and industrial monitoring, grounded in geomatics-grade spatial science.

Spatial intelligence that holds the field accountable.

Forestry Applications

Our current focus is AI-powered log counting and yield estimation - delivered through a platform where owners, loggers, and site managers can log in and track real-time field metrics as we collect data daily.

Forest removal area estimation
Forest Coverage Analysis

Quantify exactly how much forest was removed - and hold contractors to it.

Contractors underestimate removal. You pay the difference.

Without precise measurement, forestry owners routinely lose value to manual measurement error — averaging 6.1% across large pine consignments, with individual loads understated by as much as 8.6%.* Our satellite and drone-derived coverage analysis gives you an independent, verifiable baseline before work begins and a clear before/after comparison when it ends.

The data is timestamped, georeferenced, and exportable — usable directly in contract disputes or regulatory reporting.

Take a look at the numbers

Site area: 200 ha

Growing stock: ~200 m³/ha — Estonian mature pine (national avg. 155 m³/ha across all ages; harvestable stands run higher)

Stumpage price: ~€50/m³ — derived from €65–80/m³ roadside minus ~€20–25 harvesting costs

Measurement error: 6.10% avg, 8.62% ceiling — Moskalik et al. (2022)*

At 6.1% average error

200 × 200 × €50 × 0.061 = €122,000

At 8.62% ceiling

200 × 200 × €50 × 0.0862 = €172,400

Volume and price figures are estimates. Site-specific results will vary.

Log Count & Measurement

Computer vision models count individual logs and estimate volume from images or video - delivering accurate tallies in minutes, not days.

Income & Yield Estimation

From log count and species data, we generate projected income estimates so landowners and buyers have clear, data-backed figures before a single truck leaves the site.

Independent Validation

We act as an external validator - giving landowners, contractors, and regulators a trusted baseline. Final counts are held accountable against our upfront yield estimates, creating transparency and compliance throughout the logging process.
