You don't know where to look first
After Storm Vaia (2018), insurers faced simultaneous claims across 40,000+ hectares.
Experts get mobilised where it's limited. Critical zones wait.

The Challenge
Forest damage is hard to localise, harder to measure and every delay has a cost.
The clock is ticking on your timber
Post-Ciarán (2023), some assessments took up to 6 months.
The longer the wait, the harder to salvage and to close the claim.
When access is impossible, data becomes critical
Ground experts and drones are grounded for days after a major event.
Critical areas go unassessed while the damage compounds.
Disputed claims need objective ground truth
When damage figures are contested, both sides rely on the same field expert.
Without an independent reference, disputes drag on.

FAQ
Common questions.
How long after the event can you deliver results?
Delivery time depends on satellite revisit frequency and cloud cover over the affected area. Results are typically available within a few weeks post-event — significantly faster than traditional on-site expert assessment. We'll give you an honest timeline estimate as soon as you submit your perimeter.
What is the spatial resolution of your analysis?
Our analysis reaches a granularity of 100 m², allowing precise plot-level damage mapping across your entire insured portfolio.
Is it compatible with my existing claims workflow?
Yes. We adapt to your existing workflow and report format. API integration is available for teams who want to connect Goodforest directly to their claims management systems. Contact us to discuss your setup.
Does it work for all forest types?
Yes — our models work regardless of tree species or forest composition. Whether your portfolio includes coniferous, deciduous, or mixed stands, the analysis applies.
