For woodland owners

What you see when your forester gives you access — how your woodland is doing in plain words, the reports and photos — and how you can export everything or move to another consultant.

Web app (read-only)
Updated
On this page

Your forester can give you a read-only login to your own woodland. You see everything they record about it, in plain words; you cannot change anything, and you never see other clients.

Signing in

Your forester creates your login. Depending on how your organisation signs in, you either get a temporary password from them, or an email from Google with a link to set your own. Use the web address your forester gives you; see Getting started for the sign-in page.

How your woodland is doing

Web appYour woodland: one card per stand.
  1. 1 Read-only: you own the data
  2. 2 Each stand in plain words
  3. 3 Help opens the owners’ guide
  1. Read-only. The banner reminds you that you own the data and can export it.
  2. Each stand in plain words — how it is doing, the last visit, what is planned next. Select one to open it.
  3. Help opens this guide.
Web appA stand: the summary, each topic, what is coming up, reports and photos.
  1. 1 How your woodland is doing
  2. 2 Topic by topic
  3. 3 Reports and photos
  1. How your woodland is doing — one sentence, and when it was last measured.
  2. Topic by topic — structure, biodiversity, regeneration, browsing… Select a topic to see it over time against its target. The ⓘ explains each term (and the Glossary lists them all).
  3. Reports and photos your forester has prepared.

Reading the results

  • On target / close to target / off target compares the latest visit with the target agreed for that stand.
  • Provisional means the method uses published defaults that are still being confirmed — the result is usable, and labelled.
  • A trend is not a forecast. It shows where the stand is heading if it keeps changing as it has.
  • Biodiversity potential is not a species count.

Export everything, or move to another consultant

Web appYour client page: Export all data (zip).
  1. 1 Export all data (zip)
  1. Choose Export all data (zip) on your client page. You get everything in open formats — details (JSON), maps (GeoJSON), records and results (CSV) and photos — any time, without asking.

Changing consultant? Your new consultant’s organisation generates a one-time transfer code; your current consultant transfers you and all your data to them (Your data).

What it doesn’t do (yet)
  • Owners cannot add notes, photos or comments.
  • No email updates — your forester sends reports.
