Case Study
In order to benefit from the sentinel images for an improved forest management process we developed a road map, which passes throw four steps (Network, Remote Sensing, Research, Showcase and awareness).

Urban trees and urban ecological infrastructure are the ecological and aesthetic component necessary for a good quality of life. Currently, urban green spaces are not at the center of planning, but rather an optional component. The trend is clear, urban green spaces in the future will influence all major areas of people's well-being, and the potential benefits must be known. The ©FAO has made a brief report on the benefits of urban trees, which is present below.
From the very beginning, we want to remind you a quotation which is found in the NT5-2000 technical regulation on forest management, page 21.
"As a result digitalization of the topographical maps and mapping, specific elements of the forest management from the existing classical to digital form (which offers the possibility of automatic processing), the GIS database will be created and used in further development. These starting points will be achieved through the logical connection of digital mapping with the existing site and forest vegetation digital characterization elements (AS program).
Technology has become a very important part in the forestry field, becoming even more indispensable, as it helps a continuous integration of data and an adaptation to the new requirements of the market.
Forestry 4.0 is based on the concept of Smart Forestry, which means the processes are becoming more and more automated, independent or semi-independent equipment is used, data can be transmitted in real time and stored online, being available to anyone and anywhere, and some of the decisions can be made by systems or even robots with AI (artificial intelligence). In short, the integration of technology as much as possible in forestry.
Profitability and sustainability of forestry depend on accurate resource information. Many times large areas of forests are cut only for few valuable trees. These trees are unknown in the present way of how forest management data is organized today. We call them pearls and finding and extracting them in a non-invasive way can reduce human interventions in natural habitats
The field of forest inventory is on the doorstep of revolution. Laser-based technologies allow gathering field data non-destructively, more precisely and faster than ever.
