Forest inventory with laser scanning

We scan the stand and use 4CAD PointLab to measure every tree: position, height, diameter at breast height (DBH), crown and approximate wood volume. The result is a tree list, volume per hectare and a stand map.

We scan in: Czechia · Slovakia · Poland · Austria · Germany · data processed in 4CAD PointLab

What we survey

Forest stands and urban trees

For forest owners, forest managers and urban tree managers.

Forest stands

Individual trees, vegetation layers and the terrain under the canopy.

Downed wood

Fallen logs captured in the point cloud.

Parks and green spaces

Trees in parks and urban green spaces.

Terrain

Forest terrain contour lines for CAD.

Deliverables

A tree list instead of estimates

The analysis is purely geometric, with no prior training – for data from drones and terrestrial scanners.

Trees with measurements

Every tree gets its own number, position, height, diameter at breast height (DBH), crown and volume.

Terrain and summaries

Volume per hectare, a stand map on an orthophoto and terrain contour lines for CAD.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What data do you base the inventory on?

Point clouds from a drone, terrestrial, mobile or handheld scanner. Terrestrial and mobile scans give the most accurate stem diameters.

What will I get as a result?

A tree list with position, height, diameter at breast height (DBH), crown and volume, a per-hectare summary and a stand map.

How much does 3D scanning cost?

The price depends on the scope, the level of detail required and the deliverables. Send us your brief and we will prepare a no-obligation quote.

Where do you work?

We work in Czechia, Slovakia, Poland, Austria and Germany. We come on site and capture the data.

Need an inventory of your forest stand?

Send us the location and area. We will prepare a no-obligation quote.
