Operational analytics for UK forestry & land management
LiDAR • Multispectral • Thermal • RGB photogrammetry (2D/3D & point clouds).
Nursery Analytics
Counts, A/B/C grading, sapling & average bed heights, split-stem rate.
Restocking & Survival
Tree/survival counts, heatmaps, species/age summaries.
Environmental & Carbon
CHM, structure metrics, hedgerow mapping, NDVI/thermal anomalies.
Land & Utility Surveys
DTM/DSM, boundaries/access, wildlife corridor checks.
How it works
Plan
Scope, airspace & risk checks, and flight plan. We confirm permissions & dates around weather.
Fly
LiDAR + multispectral + thermal + RGB. CAA-compliant operations and on-site safety management.
Process
Point clouds, CHM, NDVI/thermal mosaics, species/age summaries, and QA validation.
Publish
PDF/DOCX packs, GeoTIFF/GeoPackage layers, and a simple QGIS project for easy viewing.
What you get
Deliverables
- Client report (PDF/DOCX) with clear KPIs
- GIS layers (GeoTIFF/GeoPackage) ready for QGIS

- CHM ≥ 0.20 m OR NDVI ≥ 0.20 OR ΔT normal (survival rule)
- CRS: EPSG:27700 (British National Grid)
Safety & Compliance
- CAA-controlled operations; Pilot in Command has final say
- Operator ID: GBR-OP-K3GKP2JCP5DJ
- Risk assessments, site briefing & on-site cordon
- Battery & data handling procedures (ESG-aligned)
