Vietnam Forestry Needs

• Forest inventory parameters mainly obtained by old methods: inspections, terrestrial surveys, extrapolating from previous survey

• Limited equipments & solutions for gathering forestry information

• The capture up-to-date, accuracy information is increasingly vital for forest management

• Seeking better solutions for forestry survey, inventory, planning, conservation, havesting

• Solutions can integrated with current systems

Trimble Forest Management

• Easy implemented in scenarios:– Inventory control & future projection– Forest management & monitoring– Planning & optimization of transport routes– Planning for drainage & fertilization– Appraisal of potential erosion– Harvesting forescast & timber growth

Trimble Forest Management

• Drived directly & automatically forestry para.:– Height of forest canopy & single tree height– Single tree segmentation & crown area– Tree number & stand density– 3D coordinates of tree centers– Classification of deciduous & coniferous trees– Fine-grained detail:

• Tree diameter at breast height• Timber volume• Timber growth• Species

Trimble Frestry Data Collection

• In the air to the ground• From individual to enterprise solutions• Airborne system:

– Photo flight system: Laser scanner & RGB/NIR etc.– Lidar system– INS & UAV: POS AV, Gatewing etc.

• Ground system:– GNSS receivers: Geo6000, Juno rugged, Pathfinder– Optical & laser instruments: LaserAce; Total Station– Field computers w/ field software: Yuma, Nomad

Trimble Forestry Data Processing

• Processing software package:– Trimble Pathfinder Office– Trimble GeoSpatial Suite – Trimble SOLO Office – Trimble eCognition Suite

• Quantity canopies & biomass• Identify species• Delineate tree crowns• Measure fire scars and cutblocks
