The first event, organised in Azuga by the Association of Foresters of Romania (ASFOR), showcased the work of a harvester equipped with sensors was used to measure and assess timber, the automatical tagging with RFID tags, LiDAR scanning and real-time data transmission to a central geospatial database. These technologies are designed to complement Romania’s SUMAL 2.0 system and support compliance with the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR).
The demonstration was followed on 10 September by a presentation organised by the Transilvania University of Brașov of the SINTETIC project during Forester’s Day at Cheile Grădiștei. During the day, the Tree Scanner application was showcased. This app is a digital solution for measuring and scanning trees using mobile-device technology.
The event highlighted SINTETIC’s ambition to connect advanced digital technologies with practical forestry operations, strengthening transparency and traceability throughout the timber value chain.
