The value of old-growth trees goes way beyond their worth as raw lumber. Our goal is to document our old growth legacy and protect it with the power of community, creativity, and technology.
We acknowledge this beautiful place where we live work and play as unceded territories of First Nations and honour their custodianship.
Protecting Biodiversity, One Scan at a Time
Using advanced LiDAR technology, we capture the intricate details of old-growth ecosystems.
Building a Spatial Library of Ancient Forests
We capture a spatial record of old growth ecosystems and allow people to experience and appreciate them from anywhere. Learn more about our process and the technology we use to make it happen.

FAQs
Find answers to common questions about the OldGrowthXYZ project, its technology, and its impact on biodiversity conservation.
OldGrowthXYZ is our flagship project that involves scanning old growth forests and mother trees using lidar technology to create digital twins. These digital twins help us better understand the biodiversity within these forests and develop conservation strategies.
Biodiversity is crucial for maintaining the health and balance of ecosystems. It supports the stability of natural systems, provides essential ecosystem services, and contributes to the overall well-being of our planet.
Lidar, which stands for Light Detection and Ranging, is a remote sensing technology that uses laser pulses to measure distances and create detailed 3D representations of objects and landscapes. In the context of OldGrowthXYZ, lidar is used to scan old growth forests and mother trees to create digital twins.
Digital twins are virtual replicas of physical objects or systems. In the case of OldGrowthXYZ, digital twins are created using lidar data to accurately represent the structure and composition of old growth forests and mother trees. These digital twins are valuable tools for studying and conserving biodiversity.
OldGrowthXYZ contributes to biodiversity conservation by providing valuable insights into the structure and composition of old growth forests and mother trees. This information helps scientists, lawmakers and conservationists develop effective strategies for preserving and restoring these important ecosystems.
