In real estate, photographs of a property are an incredibly valuable marketing tool. Very rarely do people buy properties sight unseen.

Occasionally, cartographers will even sneak a fictional city into their maps to catch copycats (Google Maps does it too - ever heard of Argleton, England?). All of that is to say, mapping experts contribute a great deal to society.

However, it’s not all doom and gloom; it’s certainly a tall order, but with forestry mapping software, we have all of the tools we need to begin giving and restoring our forests to their former glory.
