Trusted by Forestry Professionals

See what foresters and timber cruisers are saying about FieldTap.

“FieldTap cut our post-cruise data entry time by 70%. The FT-series forms match our exact cruising workflow, and the offline mode is rock-solid deep in the timber -no cell service required.”

Mark T.

Registered Professional Forester, Pacific Timber Consulting

“We run 8-person cruise crews across three states. FieldTap lets me review plot data the same evening instead of waiting for tally sheets to come back to the office. The consistency improvement alone justified the switch.”

Kevin D.

Timber Cruising Supervisor, Northern Forests Resource Group

“The AI photo analysis is surprisingly accurate for species ID and defect classification. Combined with voice transcription, my field time per plot dropped by a third. I recommend FieldTap to every forester I work with.”

Laura H.

Forest Management Consultant, Cascade Forestry Associates

Built for Forestry Data Security

Timber inventory protection, landowner privacy, FSC/SFI audit trails, and BMP compliance documentation are not add-ons -they are the architecture.

Timber Inventory Data Protection

Cruise data, volume estimates, and timber sale valuations are access-restricted by default. Role-based controls ensure sensitive inventory data stays within authorized project teams.

Landowner Data Privacy

Private landowner contact information, tract boundaries, and management plans are protected with project-level isolation. Data is never shared across client accounts.

Immutable Audit Trail

Append-only audit logs that cannot be modified or deleted. Full chain-of-custody documentation for FSC/SFI certification audits and state BMP compliance reviews.

Encrypted & Hardened

AES-256 encryption at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit, signed URLs for photos, HSTS, and row-level security on every database table.
