Forestry

Forest inventory and management involve conducting surveys over extensive areas. Drones enhance the data collection process by providing highly accurate and digitized data, leading to increased efficiency in forest management

Advanced forestry management solutions providing comprehensive forest inventory, LiDAR-based analysis, and precise digital modeling for enhanced forest management and conservation efforts.

Advantages

Swift and Adaptable Access

Drones are swift and adaptable, capable of quickly reaching and scanning areas of interest without being hindered by terrain or other conditions, addressing forest resource surveys that are labor-intensive with traditional methods demanding significant manpower, particularly challenging in areas with complex geographical features.

Precise Digital Forest Models

They generate precise digital models of forests, facilitating effective management of forest inventories, replacing conventional survey methods that struggle to rapidly, comprehensively, and accurately capture information about the target and its surrounding environment.

Applications

Forest Inventory Management

Conduct detailed forest inventories with precise tree counting, species identification, and biomass estimation for comprehensive forest management.

Conservation Planning

Support conservation efforts with detailed forest mapping and analysis for biodiversity protection and sustainable forest management practices.

Environmental Monitoring

Monitor forest health, detect disease outbreaks, and assess environmental changes for proactive forest management and conservation.

Solution Features

Comprehensive drone-based solutions designed for agriculture operations.

Accurate Forest Inventory

The Matrice 350 RTK, outfitted with the Zenmuse L2 LiDAR, creates highly detailed 3D point cloud models of forests, enabling precise inventory management. The Zenmuse L2's capability of 5 returns and a smaller spot size allows it to penetrate the forest canopy, revealing more information about the terrain and the forest's structure. Utilize DJI Terra to produce both photogrammetry and point cloud models, and classify the point cloud data for advanced forest analysis.

  • Create detailed 3D forest models by combining photogrammetry and LiDAR scanning with a single drone
  • Survey extensive areas of up to 2.5 km² in one flight for comprehensive forest coverage
  • High-performance integrated LiDAR sensor with 5 returns and an effective point cloud rate of 240,000 points per second
  • A range of outputs including Digital Elevation Models (DEM) and Digital Surface Models (DSM)
  • Advanced point cloud classification for in-depth forest analysis and inventory management
  • Forest canopy penetration capabilities for detailed terrain and structure analysis

Workflow

1
Data Collection

Using the DJI Pilot 2 app and the 3D Mapping Flight Mission feature, capture the data to generate a 3D model of the forest with comprehensive LiDAR and photogrammetry coverage.

2
Data Processing

Input the data to DJI Terra, then reconstruct a high resolution 3D model combining LiDAR point clouds and photogrammetry for detailed forest analysis.

3
Data Analysis

Perform point cloud classification to analyze forest status and make accurate decisions. Import the resulting point cloud into a third-party software for further forest management and analysis.

4
Forest Management

Generate comprehensive forest inventory reports with species classification, biomass estimation, and conservation planning recommendations for sustainable forest management.
