Our verdict on Field-Map

Field-Map is a forestry-focused geographic information system for collecting, managing and analysing field data. It is designed for forestry professionals, consultants, researchers and organisations managing forest resources. Core workflows cover forest inventory, GIS mapping, spatial data management, GPS-based positioning and forest resource monitoring. Field collection can continue without continuous connectivity, supporting teams working in areas where a persistent connection is impractical.

The product uses a contact-sales pricing model, so organisations discuss licensing directly with IFER – Monitoring and Mapping Solutions, Ltd. Field-Map is deployed as Windows desktop software, which suits teams standardised on that environment but narrows platform choice. Its integration focus is forestry-specific: the product links field workflows with forest measurement instruments and positioning equipment. That combination connects recorded measurements, location data and mapped forest information within one desktop-oriented workflow.

Field-Map’s strongest case is for teams that need detailed forest inventory collection alongside advanced GIS and offline field operations. The forestry-specific scope supports resource monitoring and spatial analysis without requiring a general-purpose mapping tool to be adapted to forest work. Organisations seeking harvest-planning capabilities, a non-Windows deployment or a broader platform ecosystem should compare alternatives. Choose Field-Map when offline inventory, GPS positioning and instrument-linked measurement are central requirements; look elsewhere when cross-platform access or wider operational planning is the priority.
