Leveraging technology to create greener, more resilient cities
Your urban forest, at your fingertips.
City planners know the benefits of a thriving urban canopy, but are limited by reactive tree management. Digital mapping takes the guesswork out of maintaining a city’s tree population, leading to healthier, greener, more resilient cities.
How does it work?
Each tree is scanned with vehicle-mounted LiDAR, then this data is used to create a fully digital replica of the city’s tree population. It’s a comprehensive ‘tree inventory’ that shows the exact location, health, and condition of each tree.
Instead of relying on irregular surveys and incomplete data, urban forest managers get accurate, up-to-date information that enables confident, informed decisions.
Enabling proactive tree management
Digital tree mapping allows urban planners to:
Identify damaged or weakened trees that may be hazardous to people or property.
Identify diseased or unhealthy trees and begin a treatment plan.
Assess carbon sequestration.
Make informed decisions about new planting projects.
Maintain trees that are encroaching on power lines or traffic signs.
Keep the urban canopy in good condition and maximise the benefits to the city.
It’s groundbreaking technology with the power to change the way cities and towns manage their urban forests forever.
