The map in the browser
Compartments, stands, roads and boundaries as an interactive map — rendered from your project file, so species colours, hatching and labels stay the way your enterprise draws them.
One forest map everyone in your enterprise can open.
Your stand data comes out of QGIS, a GeoPackage or the management plan and into one map in the browser — with a dashboard and capture out in the stand that works without reception.
Stand map
Compartments, stands, roads and boundaries — from your own project file.
Stand data
Areas, species shares and age classes, evaluated from the published sheet.
Field capture
Record out in the stand without reception, then sync once you are back online.
Review
Nothing reaches the live map before someone has checked it.
What the sheet contains
Six things your enterprise gets out of one maintained QGIS project.
Stand data, evaluated
Areas, species shares and age classes read straight from the published sheet. No second spreadsheet that drifts away from the map.
Capture in the stand
Your field staff work on a phone or tablet out in the stand, with no reception needed. What they record syncs into the working copy once they are back online.
Release before publication
Field records land in a working copy first. Only what has been checked becomes the live map, so nobody plans against a half-finished survey.
One enterprise, separate roles
A protected map area per enterprise, with accounts for the office and for field work. We set the roles up for you.
Versions you can go back to
Recent publications are kept as restorable versions, and the database and map storage are backed up automatically.
From the compartment to the sheet
Three steps. The first two are our work — the third is the one you use every day.
We map the stands
On site, georeferenced and accurate to the metre — or from what you already have: a QGIS project, a GeoPackage, a shapefile, an existing management plan.
We check and release it
Geometry, attributes and symbology are reviewed against the project before anything is published. You see the sheet before it goes live.
You work with it
Map and dashboard in the browser, a tablet out in the stand. New records go back through step two, so the sheet stays a sheet you can rely on.
Who works with it
Forest enterprises and districts
Every stand in one place — for management planning, silviculture and the daily decisions in the district.
Forest owners without GIS
Know what stands where, and what it is worth doing this year — without installing anything.
Forestry contractors and surveyors
Keep sheets for several clients side by side and publish reviewed results per enterprise.
Municipalities and communal forests
One sheet everyone involved reads from — from the forestry office to the council committee.
Frequently asked questions
What does EcoForce actually do?
We maintain your QGIS project and serve it as a web map with a stand data dashboard. Your team opens a browser instead of a GIS, recording happens out in the stand on a tablet, and every change is reviewed before it is published.
What do you need from us to start?
A QGIS project, a GeoPackage or a shapefile is enough — we also work from an existing management plan. If there is nothing digital yet, we survey the stands on site.
Do we need to know QGIS?
No. The GIS work stays on our side. Your enterprise gets a map and a dashboard in the browser, and field staff record out in the stand on a tablet.
Does our own symbology survive?
Yes. The map is rendered from your project file, so species colours, hatching and labels look the way your enterprise already draws them.
What happens to a wrong entry?
New records land in a working copy, not on the live map. Recent publications are kept as restorable versions, so a bad state can be rolled back.
What does it cost?
It depends on forest area and how much survey work is needed. Send us what you have and you get a fixed quote.
Send us your project. We will show you your forest in it.
A QGIS project, a GeoPackage or a shapefile is enough. You get a sheet back and decide from there — no obligation, no installation.
