Wood Traceability with DIGIMEDFOR Drones
TopView introduces the Traceability Box, the device that certifies when and where surveys take place, fully integrated with the project’s digital platform.
How wood traceability works with DIGIMEDFOR drones
On 4 February 2026, TopView took part in the webinar “Digital tools for wood traceability in smart forestry”, presenting its role in developing the DIGIMEDFOR Data Traceability Platform System — the new European digital ecosystem designed to ensure transparency, quality, and sustainability in forest resource management.
Our technology: certifying drone flights
During the event, we showcased the Traceability Box, the device developed by TopView to securely record drone positions using the Galileo OSNMA signal.
This system certifies flights performed before and after harvesting operations, providing objective evidence of forest conditions and supporting due‑diligence procedures.
The platform stores only the drone’s positions and timestamps — it does not collect images or data from any other onboard sensors. This approach ensures data integrity and neutrality.
An integrated workflow for the entire value chain
The DIGIMEDFOR project brings together, within a single system:
- RFID tagging to identify trees, logs, and processed wood
- On‑site qualitative measurements collected via an Android app and dedicated tools
- Certified drone flights through the Traceability Box
- Blockchain‑based data storage to ensure traceability and immutability
This combination makes it possible to track every element in the supply chain — from forest to finished product — with an unprecedented level of reliability.
The Vallombrosa case
During the webinar, we presented one of the flights carried out in the Vallombrosa Forest, tracked and displayed on the platform in real time.
This practical example shows how operators can remotely monitor mission progress and retain certified proof of all activities performed.
Our commitment
TopView continuerà a migliorare la Traceability Box e a supportare lo sviluppo della piattaforma.
