Remote Sensing for Forestry Mapping
Forestry remote sensing is often required by government and commercial agencies to perform value assessments for certification and funding, policy recommendations and regulatory compliance. UIZ provides your own up-to-date maps with your own desired scale in the fields of forest management, watershed management, desertification combat, biodiversity management, environmental monitoring and evaluation along with many other services.
Often the forest cover data and maps available with the private and governmental agencies is too old to be reliable. UIZ’s remote sensing professionals can help you in generating your own up-to-date maps with your own desired scale. UIZ uses remote sensing technologies in the fields of forest management, watershed management, desertification combat, biodiversity management, forest monitoring and evaluation along with many other services.
