MOBILE
Forest Inventory Made Easy
The SilvAssist Mobile technology is the heart of the SilvAssist software suite and gives you complete control for accurate data collection in the field. Client-driven pre-loaded options, built-in navigation and RTI functionality, configurable data entry forms and data sychronization directly to Inventory Manager make SilvAssist the easiest-to-use and most robust mobile forestry inventory system on the market today.
INVENTORY MANAGER
Monitor and Manage Projects with More Simplicity, But More Depth
Stop waiting for a week, a month or until the end of a project to receive the project data. Say goodbye to manual processes including assessing information from emails and spreadsheets! Start accurately tracking multiple projects in one or many locations with ease. SilvAssist’s Inventory Manager provides digital data DAILY (from SilvAssist Mobile) and is presented in a user-friendly interface. Based on your role in the organization or project, Inventory Manager uses hierarchy and permissions to provide various levels of detail about project status, cruiser information, and more. The platform also allows for easy invoice and audit verification.
EVENTS MANAGEMENT
Planning, forecasting and tracking history using spreadsheets is time consuming, and the manual processes lead to errors that add time and costs, and reduce the overall success of the project. Events Manager is a service F4 Tech provides that eliminates the need for additional keying and importing data from various resources to produce calculations and reports needed for planning, budgeting, and forecasting – critical in planting, harvesting, and site preparation. Using digital data provided from Events Manager provides accurate outputs for your needs giving you confidence in making critical decisions. If you have SilvAssist Inventory Manager, let us help you leverage the power of the ArcGIS platform to configure this advanced solution for you.
