Tree assessments are carried out to suit the needs of the site and situation. Roger’s arborists can assess trees from ground level, above ground (i.e. within the canopy), above the tree using drone technologies or at root level using ground penetrating radar. Significant investment has been undertaken in advance decay detection which includes the use of micro resistant drills and sonic tomography to assess levels of decay within a tree non-invasively. Further technology utilised within the company include remote moisture metres, remote tilt sensors and canopy mapping to allow update to date and accurate data when assessing trees. With constant research and development, Independent Arboricultural Services aims to be at the forefront of technology within the Arboricultural industry.
