Real-World Deployments

Our Projects

Applied deployments of ZaminSense AI technology across forest inventory, urban tree management, and utility vegetation management.


⚡ Utility Vegetation Management

AI-Powered Utility Vegetation Management

AiDroneTree UVM processes UAV LiDAR data to detect power line infrastructure, identify individual trees in utility corridors, and flag encroachment risks. Each tree is assigned full biometric and spatial parameters to support maintenance planning and regulatory reporting.

Power Line Detection
Automated extraction of distribution and transmission line geometry directly from the UAV LiDAR point cloud.
🌳
Individual Tree Detection
TreeNet deep learning model detects every individual tree within and adjacent to the utility corridor.
Encroachment Flagging
Trees that breach clearance thresholds from conductors are automatically flagged with priority level and distance-to-line.
📈
Per-Tree Parameters
Location (GPS), height, volume, ground diameter, DBH, crown diameter, and encroachment distance per tree.
🌍
Digital Terrain Model (DTM)
Ground surface modeled from LiDAR to account for terrain slope when assessing tall-tree risk.
📄
GIS-Ready Output
Results exported as GeoJSON, Shapefile, and tabular reports for utility asset management systems.

Completed Projects

Town of Fayetteville, Syracuse NY

UVM Demo — Town of Fayetteville

A demonstration project in the Town of Fayetteville, Syracuse, showcasing AiDroneTree UVM's ability to process UAV LiDAR data over a municipal distribution corridor. The system automatically detected power line geometry, identified all trees within the right-of-way, and flagged high-risk encroachment candidates with full parameter outputs for each tree.

UVM — Finland

An international Utility Vegetation Management project in Finland, demonstrating AiDroneTree UVM's capability across northern European forest types and utility infrastructure. The system detected power line corridors, identified individual trees within right-of-way zones, flagged encroachment risks, and generated full per-tree parameter outputs.

🌳 Forest & Urban Tree Inventory

Individual Tree Detection & Forest Inventory

AiDroneTree Forest & Urban Inventory detects, measures, and maps every individual tree across forested or urban areas from UAV LiDAR data, delivering a comprehensive spatial database of tree-level attributes for forest management, carbon accounting, and urban planning.

🌳
Individual Tree Detection
TreeNet detects individual tree crowns from UAV LiDAR across dense forest and urban canopies.
📈
Full Biometric Parameters
Per-tree height, volume, location (GPS), DBH, crown diameter, and above-ground biomass.
🌏
DSM / DTM / CHM
Digital Surface, Terrain, and Canopy Height Models for structural analysis and forest health.
🌍
GIS-Ready Output
Exports with all tree locations and attributes for forest management systems and carbon registries.
🔬

Optional multispectral imagery integration for species classification alongside LiDAR metrics.
Scalable Coverage
From single city blocks to entire municipal forests or regional landscape inventories.

Completed Projects

Town of Fayetteville, Syracuse NY

Urban Tree Inventory — Town of Fayetteville

A tree inventory pilot program conducted in the Town of Fayetteville as covered by Eagle News. AiDroneTree detected and measured individual trees across the municipality, producing a spatial database of tree-level attributes including height, DBH, crown area, and location to support urban forestry management and canopy planning.
