What does a tree inventory contain?
A tree inventory allows to identify all the characteristics of the species present on site and to follow their evolution over time.
It contains:
– Tree or group of trees characteristics and their environment:
- Location,
- Tree species, diameter, height, landscape analysis etc,
- Phytosanitary condition (vigorous, contaminated with pathogens or lignivorous fungi etc),
- Tree development,
- Surroundings (close to a building etc)
- Tree’s value as appropriate.
–Pictures, sketches of trees that require interventions,
-Pictures or sketches of the site to identify its peculiarities.
We carry out this inventory with a basic diagnosis (VTA Visual Tree Assessment method). Whenever necessary, a thorough diagnosis may be carried out by one of our expert colleagues.
On demand, trees geopositioning can be carried out to indicate precise trees GPS coordinates.
A cartography is created via a GIS (geomatics information System) in order to identify graphically on the map, the trees that have been examined.
The synthesis of all the data can be collected in a GIS or in an Excel file. This, in order to include all the information gathered on site. A GIS software offers the advantage of allowing to select specific data and to view it on the map! (for example: all trees affected by lignivorous fungi which one would like to monitor, all young trees whose stake must be removed etc).
Thus, this data collection aims to define a tree management plan and to follow trees good development. It also allows to optimise the financial cost of the interventions to be carried out, for the owner.
