Gozdno Gospodarstvo Les, managing over 2,000 hectares of forests in Slovenia, transitioned to a cutting-edge GIS-based workflow to streamline its sustainable forestry operations. The organization’s daily operations include timber harvesting, forest cultivation, boundary marking, and grassland rentals, all requiring precise geospatial data and seamless collaboration. Traditional tools such as outdated Garmin GPS devices and paper workflows were replaced with GIS Cloud apps, providing real-time location intelligence and an intuitive interface for field data collection, planning, and monitoring.

With GIS Cloud’s Mobile Data Collection App, foresters efficiently recorded and transmitted data in real-time, even in areas with limited connectivity using offline mode. These operations extended to auction management, habitat tree tracking, and illegal activity monitoring. This transition reduced time and costs significantly while enhancing data accuracy and communication. The GIS Cloud platform also facilitated real-time collaboration between stakeholders, including forest services, resellers, environmental groups, and local communities, ensuring transparency and efficiency in operations.
