QGIS-Based Solutions
Fast, transparent, and agile development from start to finish.
Open-source technology for advanced spatial workflows
Forestry is one of the most data-intensive sectors, which makes QGIS the most practical, scalable, and cost-effective way to support your business processes. Arbonaut develops QGIS-based geospatial solutions for data creation, editing, analysis, and reporting, ensuring a reliable setup that you can trust in your daily operations.
User-friendly tailored tools your team will actually use
From small modules to full-scale systems
Over 30,000 companies use QGIS worldwide
For forestry, environmental services, and other industries
More freedom in how you work
Typical issues
Where your current setup may hold you back
As more people need access to maps and spatial information, licensing costs can make wider adoption difficult to justify.
Forestry needs evolve, but the tools available at your disposal do not always accommodate new processes, data, or ways of working.
Years of data and user experience create real dependencies, so even when the current setup is becoming restrictive, migration can look like the bigger risk.
QGIS
What moving to QGIS can open up
QGIS is completely free and open source, so you can add users and expand GIS use without software licence fees.
Adapt to changing needs, new data and automation with QGIS plugins and tailored components without depending on a vendor’s roadmap.
Carry established data and workflows into a new GIS environment, rather than treating migration as a complete restart. QGIS supports common formats including GeoPackage, Shapefile, GeoTIFF, PostGIS, WMS, and WFS.
