01
Full Canopy Penetration
Multi-return pulses strip 95%+ closed canopy to expose true bare-earth topography.
Survey Technologies
Methods & Capabilities
Our multi-return LiDAR payloads penetrate dense forest canopy to generate bare-earth Digital Elevation Models with centimeter-level vertical accuracy. Raw point clouds are converted into actionable metrics: tree height, basal area, crown diameter, biomass estimates, and timber volume.
Key Advantages
02
Automated Tree Metrics
Algorithmic extraction of individual tree heights, volumes, and stand densities.
03
Carbon & Biomass Audits
Biomass outputs formatted for certified carbon offset compliance and REDD+ programs.
Applications
Primary Deployments
- Commercial timber volume and yield inventory
- Carbon offset measurement and accreditation verification
- Watershed hydrology, runoff modeling, and contouring
- Powerline and pipeline corridor vegetation encroachment audits
- Slope stability, soil erosion, and landslide risk profiling
Case File
