Count Every Tree!

• Intelescope Solution: Count and measure individual trees across the entire forest

• Advantage: Intelescope approach minimizes the error associated with a forest assessment by orders of magnitude

• Benefit: 1.) Forestry management firms save money by cutting the right number of trees to fulfill demand 2.) Large firms successfully estimate holdings of forests therefore reducing risk when acquiring new properties
