Precision Forestry Use Cases

Planting in Grids with Guidance

  • Use Case: Achieve optimal forest density and uniformity by using real-time GPS guidance for precise grid planting.
  • How It Works: The solution uses GPS-enabled systems to guide planting machinery, ensuring precise spacing and alignment. The system provides real-time feedback to operators, allowing them to maintain consistent planting patterns across varied terrains.
  • Key Features:
    • Corrected GPS-guided planting ensures exact spacing with centimeter-level accuracy.
    • Ability to add spacings for different species to achieve optimal stocking on-site.
The grid displays the circumferance of the boom - so the operator can see the reach

Documenting Seedling Positions

  • Use Case: Accurately document and store seedling locations for future analysis and reporting while forest owners can use this information for trading on the carbon markets.
  • How It Works: As seedlings are planted, GPS coordinates are automatically recorded and logged into a centralized database. This data is accessible for future analysis, providing a comprehensive map of seedling positions.
  • Key Features:
    • Real-time GPS data capture.
    • Seamless integration with GIS systems.
The forest owner can be sent a PDF report over the documented seedlings

Monitoring Your Fleet

  • Use Case: Achieve optimal forest density and uniformity by using real-time GPS guidance for precise grid planting.
  • How It Works: Integrated GPS trackers on all machines provide real-time location and status updates. A centralized dashboard displays this information, allowing managers to monitor fleet movement and optimize resource deployment.
  • Key Features:
    • Real-time fleet tracking with GPS.
    • Centralized monitoring dashboard.
The ForestBuilder.Com portal includes the ability to monitor your fleet in (near) real-time

Productivity Analysis

  • Use Case: Optimize operational efficiency and machine usage through detailed productivity metrics.
  • How It Works: The system tracks operational data such as planting speed, area coverage, and machine performance. This data is processed to generate reports on productivity, helping identify areas for improvement and efficiency gains.
  • Key Features:
    • Real-time fleet tracking with GPS.
    • Centralized monitoring dashboard.
Use tools like Microsoft's Power BI to analyze the productivity of a unit, a block or your whole fleet.

Planning Compartments and Tracking Volumes

  • Use Case: Strategically plan forest compartments and manage stocking levels with precision.
  • How It Works: Using GPS and mapping tools, the solution allows for precise planning of forest compartments. It also tracks volumes during establishment and reforesting, ensuring accurate inventory management and resource planning.
  • Key Features:
    • Mixed stands forestry with detailed planning.
    • Volume tracking for resource management.
