Coolant

Mapping theworld’s forests.

Coolant’s 3D Forest Vision uses advanced AI to reconstruct, measure, and manage the world’s forestlands.

Demo Talk to us

Every other industry
knows exactly what it has.

A refinery knows its barrels. A warehouse knows its pallets. Forestry runs on samples: a handful of plots, a few hundred trees, extrapolated across thousands of acres. Not for lack of wanting better data, but because measuring every tree was impossible. It isn’t any more.

Our AI extracts every individual tree from the 3D model. This is one of them.

Height, diameter,
form.

For this tree: height, diameter at breast height, leaf area and pole potential. Every number sits on the tree it came from.

Height
72.2 ft
Diameter at breast height
13.0 in
Leaf area index

Pole candidate
45 ft

Pole length is a model estimate. Confirm in the field.

Same stand,
different trees.

Each tree is measured and graded on its own: a tall straight stem, a grade 1 sawlog, a big crooked one, and a fork the model flagged. Forks, sweep and broken tops show up in the 3D model, so defects are found at the desk and confirmed in the field.

Timber products, by tree.

Sawtimber, chip-n-saw and pulpwood, estimated for every stem and totalled for the tract.

Dead and damaged trees.

Dead and damaged trees found across the stand, with the healthy ones still in view, so a crew knows where to go.

4,208 trees flagged on this tract

Three jobs,
one model.

One flight answers inventory, silviculture and carbon questions. Fly once, use the data three ways.

Inventory without the cruise.

A full tree list from the air: species, height, DBH and grade for every stem, including how many poles you have and the DBH of each. After a storm, know how many trees are dead or broken, and where, before anyone drives out.

Plan an inventory
A pole candidate picked out inside the stand.

Treat the trees that pay for it.

See where competing hardwoods are dense enough to spray, where fertilizer will pay, and which stems are pole candidates, before the crew walks the block. Leaf area and stem defects for every tree.

Carbon layer: modeled biomass and carbon, tree by tree.

A baseline you can defend.

Biomass and carbon estimated per tree from measured structure, then re-flown for monitoring, reporting and verification. Blue carbon expertise for mangrove projects worldwide.

Every layer is calculated on the same trees. Pick one to see it.

The same model, seen from the ground. Stems, understory and terrain are all there.

Fly. Reconstruct.
Cruise.

Three steps from a drone battery to a full tree list.

01
A drone photograph of the pine canopy

Fly

Photograph the property with the drone you already own. A Mini 3 or Air 2S handles a small block; a Trinity Pro or Matrice 4E covers a large tract.

02
The same canopy as a 3D model

Reconstruct

3D Forest Vision builds a 3D digital twin of the whole property from the photos, with every tree kept in its place.

03
The 3D model with every tree picked out in its own colour

Cruise

Our AI cruises the twin: counts, species, height, DBH, poles, damage, defects, timber products, biomass and carbon, delivered as maps, tables and the twin itself.

The numbers have to hold up in the woods.

Within 0.2 in on DBH on open stands. Counts, diameters and species benchmarked against ground scans.
