Cruising and Inventory

Home

Atterbury Consultants has been timber cruising in the Pacific Northwest for over 20 years.  We pride ourselves in providing exceptional value to our clients.  Our timber cruisers have been trained to select the best sampling system for each stand they cruise.  The client will receive an accurate cruise report with reliable volumes and abundant information.  Our methodology provides valuable data at a reasonable price.

We use imagery and GIS data to create type maps and analyze the cruise area.  We then strategically place plot points on the map to suit the type of information needed.  Because of our preparation, our cruisers are familiar with the terrain before going to the field.

Our cruisers are equipped with GPS locators, laser rangefinders, electronic data collectors, and either a Relaskop, or the RD 1000.  They also have the option of carrying a waterproof digital camera for additional detailed data collection. 

Our cruisers are highly trained in data collection methods. They attend our seminars and are proficient with the timber cruising software that we developed; SuperACE.

Our cruisers collect data on sorts, grades, and defects so that our comprehensive and accurate measurements result in detailed and informative inventory reports.
