About

Longview Cruise

Features
Read full description

Longview Cruise is a fast, fully offline field app for foresters running timber cruises and forest inventories. Tally plot and tree data with your thumb, call it out hands-free with voice entry, and keep every measurement on your own device. Built by a working forester, it's designed for the realities of the woods — no signal, gloves on, and a long day of plots ahead. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Collect tree and plot data — species, DBH, heights, defect, and grades — in a fast tally grid built for one-handed entry. • Cruise by variable plot (prism / BAF) or fixed plot, for merchandising or inventory. • Use Voice mode to call measurements hands-free — the cursor advances as you speak. • Capture plot GPS locations. • Work entirely offline — no cell signal, no account, no login. • Match your crew's workflow with collection templates that lay out the right columns, species, and codes. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS Longview Cruise never uploads your cruise data. Everything you collect lives on your device and leaves it only when you choose to export or share it. No account, no tracking, no cloud. PART OF THE FULL WORKFLOW Back at the desk, hand your field data to Longview for desktop to compile volumes, grow stands, and build reports. Longview Cruise is the field half of that loop — and it's free. We'd love your feedback from the field — what works, what you'd change, what's missing. Reach us anytime: Admin@longviewcruise.com
