Forests in general and tropical rain forests in particular play an outstanding role in the fragile ecological balance of our planet and at the same time have an outstanding economical value. It is an urgent task of our time to find the balance between these often contrary needs.

The experts of RSS support customers with detailed forest inventories, produce geographicmaps of the extent and condition of forests using aerial and satellite imagery and determine biomass and carbon stock using LiDAR technology. Thus global strategies and regional planning can reliably be adapted to actual conditions.

• forest inventories (timber volume, biomass, carbon stock..)
• forest planning
• mapping and monitoring of forest areas
• change detection analysis (deforestation, afforestation, reforestation..)
• Damage analysis by storm, fire and over exploitation
