New app helps forest owners keep track of their forest

Sydved's and Stora Enso's forest owners can now access all information about their forest in a mobile app. The app includes property boundaries, map services and forestry plans.

Interface between forest owners and forestry companies

The forest owner app has been developed by Metria on behalf of Sydved and Stora Enso. It provides the companies with a modern tool that also serves as an interface between them and forest owners.

The app contains the information the forest owner needs, such as

  • forest management plan
  • a map of the area
  • property boundaries
  • measurement tools
  • map layers that make it easy to navigate.

As the app requires login with BankID or user account, the information is handled in a secure way.

Simplifying the dialog

With smart GIS functionality, the forest owner can easily mark points, add areas or track an area. The geometries can be saved for personal use or shared with the contact person at Stora Enso or Sydved and with others. The app also includes measurement tools for measuring distances or areas.

Sydved and Stora Enso can provide the forest owner with important information via push notifications and thus have another channel to reach customers.

Focus on user-friendliness

The app is compatible with both iOS and Android for phones and tablets.

- We have developed the app with a strong focus on user-friendliness. The user should easily get started and with as few clicks as possible navigate between the various functions of the solution, says Jonny Siikavaara, Product Manager Metria.

Part of a new product family

The Forest Owner app is part of Metria's Skogskoll product family. The apps provide forest owners, timber buyers and forestry contractors with reliable information.

- The field apps provide a smooth digital support where all parties get the information they need in the forestry process. In addition, it improves communication between forest owners and forestry companies," says Fredrik Olsson Alvebro, Product Manager for Forestry at Metria.
