Forestry

In forestry, Groupe Nippour specializes in remote sensing and route optimization. We work with images from the Landsat, SPOT, NOAA, Ikonos, and Quickbird satellites, among others. Our expertise covers the following fields :

• Monitoring and evaluation of the state of regeneration of forest sections, plantings, and burned stands
• Interpretation of stands using satellite and aerial images to establish the composition and proportions of particular forest species
• Differentiation of certain natural disturbances such as windfalls, insect outbreaks, and recurrent fires
• Percentage analysis of logging trails
• Route optimization for road construction, site topography visualization, and analysis of the impact of logging on the visual composition
