At Conifer we spent the first week of December looking at the effects of a storm that hit the northern east coast of Sweden with snow and storm-force winds that caused severe damage to both forests and the power grid.

The assignment was to quantify the damages of about 250 hectares of forest by assessing quantity, species and volume of storm felled trees combined with analysing quantity, species and volume of the remaining, still standing trees.

The assignment was done on request by client SCA Skog by using our specially trained AI-analysis for storm felled trees.
