Restoring land after disturbance—whether from wildfire, invasive species, erosion, or habitat loss—requires consistent monitoring and informed action. Columbia Terrametrics provides high-accuracy aerial data and expert analysis to help you track progress, identify problem areas, and adapt restoration strategies over time.

Using multispectral imaging and RTK/GNSS-enabled drones, we deliver detailed maps and reports that show vegetation health, canopy regrowth, terrain change, and ground cover development—all without the need for extensive fieldwork.

Our restoration monitoring services help you:

• Track post-wildfire recovery by monitoring vegetation rebound, canopy regrowth, and soil exposure

• Identify invasive species spread by detecting abnormal plant reflectance patterns and changes in cover

• Detect weak or bare zones needing replanting, erosion control, or hydrological intervention

• Measure canopy density and species establishment across seasons

• Analyze slope and elevation to assess erosion risk or drainage behavior

• Compare year-over-year changes to report on progress, guide planning, or meet grant and agency reporting requirements

All findings are delivered in a clear, easy-to-understand report—complete with maps, visuals, and expert insight on what the data means and what actions to consider next. Whether you're restoring a burned forest, revitalizing a wetland, or protecting native ecosystems from invasive species, Columbia Terrametrics helps you see the big picture—and the small changes that matter.
