Forest inventory solutions with digitalization

What we are looking for?

Forest inventories allow for the best estimation of the volume and quality of timber by means of sampling trees within the plantation. This process must be done on the ground, acing different kinds of hazards due to topography, climate or other. The increasing cost and level of specialization of crews is a challenge that drives us to seek complementary or alternative technologies to the sampling method that allow us to reduce costs and maintain the accuracy acquired by our standard forest inventory.

Sector

How will we evaluate your solution?

Minimize the cost of the inventory compared to the current method, with errors below 10% for the total volume. An evaluation of the straightness and pruning of the first 11m of the tree is needed.

We are expecting to find

Use of remote sensing technologies, such as LiDAR (airborne or terrestrial), satellite data, visible and infrared spectrum images, etc.

Recommendations to apply

Review the current opportunities in detail and evaluate whether your technology solves the challenge posed.

Do it without interruptions: find a space in your schedule, a quiet place that allows you to concentrate while you complete your application.

Focus on how your technology fits the opportunity: how your technology would achieve the result expected by the large company. Give accurate data and explain the process in detail.

Your commercial maturity matters to us: the more information you provide us about your commercial maturity (revenue, financing rounds, investors, etc.), the more chances you will have of being selected.

Tell us about your experience with other companies that have had a relevant impact.

Provide additional information that can help us understand the impact of your technology: we highly value your videos, presentations, brochures, success stories, etc…

Apply early: the sooner you submit your application, the more time we have to learn about your solution.
