Modern timber cruising that reads your legacy archive — and never locks in what you make.
Longview collects cruises in the field on any device, compiles them into clean reports, and grows them forward — with Behre volumes built on the same methods as the legacy software you know. Mac, Windows, iOS, and Android. Your data comes out in open formats, always.
Legacy cruise software has served foresters for decades. Longview isn’t a rip-and-replace: it opens the projects you already have on day one, and it never traps the data it makes. Switching in is easy — and switching out would be just as easy.
Import your legacy project backups directly — every stand, plot, and tree, ready to report on. Decades of cruises don’t get stranded on aging software.
A raw-data workbook is always available — even if your subscription lapses. Reports, tree lists, and GIS layers export in open formats. Nothing is ever held hostage.
A field app that’s fast where the work is, a desktop that compiles and edits without friction, and the same trusted math on Mac, Windows, iOS, and Android.
From standing timber to a finished report to a grown-and-valued projection — collection, compiling, and growth-and-yield modeling live together.
Longview Field runs fully offline on a phone or tablet — voice entry, GPS plot centers, one-tap autofill. Live volume and stats as you cruise.
One tap shares an .osfield file over AirDrop, Files, email, or a synced cloud folder. No cables, no proprietary sync service.
Longview Desktop opens the file, reconciles any day-2 edits, and turns it into styled reports and clean exports.
Model your stands forward with FVS growth-and-yield, then value the future — grown tree lists, yields, and appraisal, right in the desktop.
Longview supports the methods you actually use — and you can mix them across stands in one project.
BAF cruising, with in/out measured at 4′ or 16′ — merchantable and total height.
By radius or by acreage, with regeneration and strip options.
Tally every tree — no sampling, full census.
Tally a set share of the stand and expand to the whole.
A tally-plot count married to a measured sample for a full stand-table adjustment.
Different plot sizes for different tree classes, captured on one plot.
Built by a cruiser with 20+ years in the woods — for cruisers. Fast, efficient, and intuitive: a real step up from what you’re used to.
