Training Poland’s future foresters with real-world digital tools

Growing future foresters with real-world tools

Forestry is changing fast. Digital measurement, data-driven decisions, and transparent timber flows are no longer “nice to have” — they are everyday requirements in modern forestry operations. For students entering the profession, learning with the same tools used in the field makes all the difference.

That’s why Timbeter is proud to support young foresters by providing a free academic licence to Zespół Szkół Leśnych w Lesku in Poland.

From classroom to log yard: Learning that matches reality

Zespół Szkół Leśnych w Lesku is the only forestry technical school in south-eastern Poland, educating future forestry technicians since 1972. Run by the Ministry of Climate and Environment, the school prepares students for work in State Forests, National Parks, forest management offices, and further academic studies.

With modern facilities, including a harvester simulator and an HDS crane trainer, the school places strong emphasis on practical, field-ready education. Timbeter fits naturally into this approach. During hands-on classes, students use the application to measure log piles optically with a smartphone or tablet, calculate timber volumes and log diameters in real time, and document measurements digitally. This gives them a clear understanding of how accuracy, consistency, and data transparency affect timber inventory, logistics, and sales.

Why this matters for forestry’s future

Learning digital measurement early helps future foresters reduce manual errors, move away from subjective estimates, and understand transparent timber accounting. These skills are increasingly expected in modern forestry operations and play an important role in sustainable forest management. Accurate measurement supports better planning, reduces disputes, and helps ensure timber resources are used efficiently and responsibly.
