Forest Evaluation, Inventory & Valuation

We specialize in providing you with customized forest management solutions, and we work through your unique circumstances. Our holistic evaluation of the forest allows our team to provide a valuation and, ultimately, a comprehensive management plan customized for your property. Approaching a century of combined vegetation management experience, our team of consulting utility foresters understands that properly analyzing and evaluating your current and forecasted canopy is vital to seeing your program holistically.

Timber Cruising

To get started with our evaluation, we will have boots on the ground as we timber cruise and survey the property. We will:

• Look at your forest inventory and boundary lines.
• Assess the amount of water.
• Check for any wetland delineation
• Audit the general condition of the property
• Examine the geography of the land
• Make note of any obstacles within the forest.

Our team builds a tree inventory that reflects our professional assessment of your tree population, pairing the latest technology with our experienced team of foresters. By conducting on-site surveys, we gather growth projections and coordinate with mapping analysis tools to ensure your standards and objectives are met.

After a holistic evaluation and inventory of your forest, our next step is to assign a valuation of the forest.

Eocene has a team of experts that can support your land acquisitions and sales by analyzing and forecasting the elements of your forest to provide you with a proper valuation before, during and after your purchase. We know the critical elements that contribute to the value of your forestland assets and will help you make the best investment decisions possible.
