We deliver the most accurate, reliable and scalable forest and natural resource inventory solutions.
About us
Tesera delivers the most reliable, scalable, consistent, timely and cost effective high resolution forest and natural resource inventory solutions. We do agile right. Tesera is faster and more specialized than generic development teams. Working with a well-defined process and a specific tool set, we can tackle even the most daunting development tasks. We produce a higher resolution, higher value and more reliable forest and natural resource inventory in significantly less time and cost when compared to conventional inventories. Tesera’s High Resolution Inventory Solutions (HRIS) are an integrated blend of Enhanced Forest Inventory (EFI) and Individual Tree Inventory (ITI) capabilities under a single unique and powerful inventory. We use LiDAR, multispectral imagery, ground plot data (along with terrain and climate data) to provide a more accurate, scalable and consistent inventory.

Some new improvements to drone mounted LiDAR for capturing trees. Newer LiDAR systems (L2) now have more power, and a maximum of 5 returns per pulse, delivering an increased return rate and higher sampling rate - improving the L2's penetration and ability to detect small details. The L2 also has a more concentrated beam. This smaller, more concentrated laser creates denser point clouds. https://lnkd.in/etMXZCAw

Canada’s 2024 National Inventory Report (May 2, 2024) details emissions from seven greenhouse gases produced by the Canadian economy from January, 1990, to December, 2022. New and updated data on historical harvest areas in Canada’s forests between 1890 and 1989 were included in the Report. https://lnkd.in/dvuRKbUP
