TIMBETER The person measuring the pile takes a picture and the application shows the size of the pile. The app enables you to measure the surface area of a pile even if it has an irregular shape. Timbeter comes with four measurement options: diameter, density, pile and truck measurement.
With diameter measurement, the application counts the number of logs in the pile giving the average diameter and even logs the diameter separately and the volume in cubic meters. Diameters can be filtered, for example, to see only the amount from 15 to 25cm.
Pile density measurement enables you to determine the density coefficient for pulp and fuelwood. Solution also gives the answer on the number of logs, diameters and the average diameter of the measured area.
All the data regarding the measurement( size, location, date and time) specifications are stored with the picture. The data is stored in a cloud service and can be easily analysed or forwarded. Timbeter ' s storage module provides a real-time overview of the different measurements made. The storage module empowers you to carry out inventories quickly and efficiently, view the active storage status and generate reports in just a few clicks.
The storage module has two views: as a map application and a table view, where users can easily filter information according to their requirements including contract number, location, tree species and much more. All data can be downloaded in an Excel file format.
The storage module provides report functionality, enabling you to create measurement reports easily in a few clicks. Users select specific measurements and the app automatically generates reports, calculating the value of different assortments. This reduces data processing, making it easier to share information between companies. The inventories functionality creates efficient inventories with precise asset record-keeping. Assortment based management enables detection of any surplus or deficit species.
