Description
The requirement is for a Hovermap LiDAR system that will increase capability for measuring trees, woodlands and hedgerows. Combining LiDAR and hovermap technology captures millimetre-accurate 3D scans of whole trees, enabling non-destructive estimates of volume, biomass, and carbon with significantly reduced uncertainty compared to traditional allometric methods. This high-resolution data supports more reliable greenhouse gas reporting and enhances the evaluation of nature-based solutions.
