You receive wildlife damage assessments for grass and corn that are carried out according to protocol, within set timeframes, and on a large scale. Our FAUNUS app ensures that each assessment is fully prepared and recorded digitally, so that every file is immediately ready for damage processing.

Our wildlife damage assessments

Wildlife damage assessments for grass and maize must be carried out strictly according to protocol. This requires uniform measurements, correct references, and complete documentation. Our assessors work all over the Netherlands and are trained in the measurement methods and guidelines applicable to BIJ12 and the provinces.

The FAUNUS app plays a central role in this. The file is automatically filled in advance with parcel information, aerial photos, reporting data, growth stage, and previous damage. In the field, the assessor records all data: measurement points, photos, reference parcels, damage percentages, notes, and GPS locations. This creates a complete and traceable file that immediately meets BIJ12 requirements.

Our working method is designed for high volumes and ensures consistent, verifiable assessments throughout the Netherlands.

  • Determining damage-causing animal species based on field characteristics
  • Measurements according to prescribed methodology (grass height, plant counts, damage percentages)
  • Reference determination based on comparable plots in the same region
  • Digital recording of measurements, photos, and GPS points via the FAUNUS app
  • Automatically prepared dossiers in advance for fast, uniform execution
  • Preparation of preliminary and final valuations within the BIJ12 timelines
  • Application of protocols for reseeding, restoration, and exceptional situations
