Now is the time of year for land owners who are considering major improvements to schedule an aerial survey for their property. The key to a good aerial survey is timing, best time being after trees have defoliated and before any snow fall.

Something to be considered is having a color orthophotograph taken while the aerial mapping is being performed.  We have found these photographs to be a valuable tool in the master planning of your property as they can not only help to differentiate between types of tree masses and other site elements. For example they can also help to point out conflict areas such as potential wetlands that might not otherwise be obvious from the survey alone.
