treemetrixby Salmon Falls Analytics

Every tree on your farm, counted.

Counting by hand means days in the rows with a clicker, and the result is still an estimate. We fly your farm once, measure every tree on it, and give you a count you can plan around.

From a simple map to custom analysis

You might want an up-to-date map of the place, a count of what’s standing, a look at which blocks are struggling, or an answer to a question about your own operation. Usually that’s one conversation and one flight.

You don’t need to know what to ask for. Tell us what you’d like to know, and we’ll tell you what it would take, what it would cost, and whether we think it’s worth doing. Plenty of farms start with a map and go from there.

We only work with Christmas tree farms on the seacoast, and the numbers are better for it. Tools built for orchards have trouble with closely planted rows of firs. Ours were developed on farms like yours.

What that looks like

Listed from simplest to most involved. Most farms start with a map, and plenty stop there.

  1. Simplest

    Current map

    A sharp, up-to-date picture of the whole farm, accurate enough to measure on.

  2. Tree inventory and analytics

    Every tree counted and measured, gaps marked, and a health map showing where growth is strong and where it’s thin. Use it to price a season, order replants, and decide which blocks to walk.

  3. Most involved

    Custom solution

    Tracking changes between visits, answering a question specific to your operation, or getting the numbers into the records you already keep.

How it goes

  1. 1

    We talk

    About what you want to know, and whether a flight is the way to find out.

  2. 2

    We fly

    About an hour over a typical farm. You don’t need to be there.

  3. 3

    We process it

    We turn the images into the numbers your question needs.

  4. 4

    We go through it with you

    We walk you through the report and answer your questions.

A number you can check

Ask two people to count a field and you’ll often get two different answers, because they disagreed about what counts. Does a knee-high transplant count? We show you where we drew the line, and you can move it yourself.

A rough acreage and the name of your town are enough to get started.
