Tallahassee, FL, August 29, 2012 – F4 Tech is proud to announce the upcoming September 3, 2012 release of SilvAssist version 3.0. SilvAssist reduces the steps required to setup, manage,
report and analyze forest inventory.

SilvAssist is an extension to ArcGIS by Esri, the industry‐standard mapping solution. It complements F4 Tech’s Real‐Time Inventory (RTI) by providing faster, more thorough GIS tools
for managing forest inventory cruises. This software helps foresters minimize steps between cruise setup and provides reports and analysis while combining inventory and geospatial data
together into one database and application.

“Our latest product release, SilvAssist 3.0, vastly improves the performance levels of our current product. This upgrade provides automatic database management, two new tools, Excel
reports with more data outputs, less forms, simpler workflows, numerous enhancements to the Plot Allocator and easier access to help,” stated F4 Tech President, Mark Milligan.

The release will be available to the public for the first time on September 3, 2012 at www.thinkf4.com. For more information regarding SilvAssist or to schedule an interview,
