About |
Deep Forestry is a Swedish deep‑tech company pioneering autonomous drones and 3D AI to digitize forests tree‑by‑tree. Our below‑canopy survey drones fly in‑between trees, even in dense and cluttered stands, to capture high‑resolution 3D data at unmatched speed and precision. Within hours, we turn this data into actionable forest intelligence for asset owners, operators, and environmental stakeholders.
Traditional forest inventories rely on slow, manual fieldwork and overhead aerial imaging that cannot see beneath the canopy. Deep Forestry’s autonomous system operates under the treetops, building centimeter‑level 3D maps and point clouds of every tree in a stand. Our drones combine rgb-cameras, LiDAR and onboard high‑power computing to navigate complex terrain, avoid obstacles, and process vast datasets in real time for SLAM-navigation.
Using proprietary 3D AI and computer vision, Deep Forestry extracts detailed per‑tree metrics including diameter, height, stem volume, and spatial position, as well as indicators related to biodiversity, forest health and biomass. The platform can analyze hundreds of trees in minutes, delivering inventories faster than manual methods while maintaining high accuracy and repeatability. Forest owners receive standardized digital datasets that plug directly into their planning, ESG, and financial workflows.
Deep Forestry unlocks new value along the entire forestry value chain. For silviculture and commercial forestry, our data supports thinning decisions, yield optimization, risk mitigation and safer operations by reducing the need for personnel in hazardous environments. For ESG, carbon and nature‑based solutions, we provide high‑resolution, auditable datasets for carbon stock estimation, biodiversity monitoring, and sustainable forest management certification. For tree‑based agriculture and plantations, our analytics help optimize planting density, health monitoring, and long‑term productivity at scale.
As a spin‑off from the Swedish research and innovation ecosystem, Deep Forestry has been validated through leading European programs and agencies. The company has received project support and recognition from organizations such as Vinnova, ESA, IBM and European Commission instruments focused on breakthrough SMEs. This backing reflects both the maturity of the technology and its strategic relevance for climate, biodiversity and infrastructure resilience.
Beyond commercial forestry, our autonomous navigation stack for GPS‑challenged, cluttered environments has clear dual‑use potential in industrial inspection, underground and indoor mapping, and defense and security applications. The same core capabilities that allow our drones to fly through dense forests can be adapted to warehouses, tunnels, and critical infrastructure, bringing precise 3D situational awareness wherever GNSS is unreliable. Deep Forestry is actively exploring partnerships in these adjacent domains while maintaining a strong focus on sustainable forestry as the primary market.
Deep Forestry’s mission is to make precision forestry accessible at the push of a button. By transforming forests into living digital twins, we help landowners and institutions improve profitability, reduce operational risk, and meet rising ESG and regulatory expectations. Ultimately, our goal is to support global climate and biodiversity objectives by enabling better decisions, grounded in high‑quality data, across millions of hectares of forest and tree‑based landscapes worldwide.
