We can offer a wide variety of further investigation and technology-assisted assessments of trees to enable you to better understand your trees and any suspected problems. 

To help get a better understanding of the trees in their context, we can offer detailed UAS or Drone Assessments of landscapes, tree populations or individual trees.

Alternatively, if you are concerned about a particular feature such as sudden changes in a tree’s appearance, cracking, fungal fruiting body, mushrooms close to the tree or recent failure, we have systems that enable us to understand the extent and implications of these potential issues in relation to tree and site safety.

Occasionally we need to understand issues at a microscopic level and can help at this level, too. Whether it’s leaf sample testing to understand nutrient or Chlorophyll content, testing soils to understand nutrient content or to test if the soils can suffer shrinkage, identifying root samples or we can even providing DNA of a part of a root to help identify its source.      

We can provide internal scans of trees using Sonic and Electronic tomography, using Picus, and Fakopp equipment, in addition to other systems such as Thermal image or Tree RADAR.

If you are concerned about the main stem or even the whole tree’s stability, we can undertake to test using specialist equipment to non-destructively test tree roots and tree stems resistance to predicted loads.

We even have systems that can look into the ground and map the location and depth of the principal roots without disturbing the existing ground cover. Root mapping is possible through soil or even below concrete and tarmac.  This can be useful in identifying where trees have caused damage or where proposals to build near a tree may threaten to damage roots directly.
