UAS Mapping & Aerial Data Services

Actionable Aerial Intelligence for Land Management, Planning, and Stewardship

Timber & Ember Co. provides Uncrewed Aerial Systems (UAS) mapping and data services to support landowners, managers, and decision-makers with accurate, site-specific information.

Our aerial services turn raw imagery into clear, usable insights—helping clients understand their land, plan treatments, and track change over time.

What Is UAS Mapping?

UAS mapping uses drones equipped with specialized sensors to capture high-resolution aerial data that cannot be easily or safely collected from the ground.

This data is processed into visual and analytical products that support:

Timber & Ember Co. provides Uncrewed Aerial Systems (UAS) mapping and data services to support landowners, managers, and decision-makers with accurate, site-specific information.

•Land management planning

•Vegetation and forest health assessment

•Property documentation

•Treatment design and monitoring

Why Aerial Data Matters

Seeing the land from above reveals patterns that are often missed on the ground, including:

•Vegetation density and distribution

•Access routes and terrain constraints

•Drainage, erosion, and disturbance patterns

•Treatment effectiveness and change over time

This allows for better decisions, fewer assumptions, and more efficient planning.

Seeing the Land Clearly—From Above

-High-Resolution Orthomosaic Mapping-

•Clear aerial maps of entire properties

•Useful for planning, documentation, and communication

•Supports management planning and project design

-Vegetation & Land Cover Mapping-

•Identify vegetation types and density

•Highlight areas of concern or opportunity

•Support habitat and forest health assessments

-Infrared (IR) & Multispectral Imaging-

•Detect vegetation stress not visible to the naked eye

•Evaluate plant vigor and moisture variability

•Support early identification of problem areas

-Project Documentation & Monitoring-

•Baseline imagery before treatment

•Post-treatment documentation

•Long-term monitoring to track change over time

How Clients Use UAS Data

Our aerial products are commonly used to:

•Plan timber and habitat treatments

•Design mechanical or manual fuel reduction projects

•Support prescribed fire planning

•Communicate conditions with contractors or agencies

•Document property conditions for records or funding

•Track improvement over multiple seasons
