For effective watershed management you must track the changing conditions of soil, water, plants and stream beds as well as surface and ground water quality, and soil erosion over large areas.   ForestIQ is an easy-to-use field data-gathering solution enabling  data-driven decision-making, including location and time for all field and instrument observations.  The data captured provides key management metrics that are required by local, state and federal agencies and resource management agreements.  ForestIQ Value Equation

Advantages of ForestIQ's Easy to Use Spatial Data Capture and Analysis System.

Powerful, but simple tools designed to facilitate the easy gathering, storage, retrieval and analysis of asset and area management.

  • You decide what information you need using the ForestIQTM Field Manager software along with our many asset and event inspection templates. 
  • You and your staff collect the necessary information while in the field using the ForestIQTM Field Recorder software running on a ruggedized hand-held (PDA) qualified by Precision Plant Systems for compatibility, ruggedness and functionality.  Field observations are entered with a simple finger press on the I-Phone-like interface and are time- and GPS-stamped, along with easy-entered field instrument measurements.
  • At the office, all the field data is automatically uploaded into the database using the ForestIQTM Analyst software. Optionally, the data can be made securely available over the internet to any password-enabled user. Your entire staff will be able to retrieve timely and accurate data for improved decision making regardless of location.
  • Finally, maps, reports, tabular data, and summaries built on the data will give you and your staff detailed information in an easy-to-use format for better asset analysis, repair and area management decisions.
