Tree Radar Onsite Survey Service.
A TRU inspection consists of two independent steps:
(1) on-site data collection, and
(2) off-site data analysis using TreeRadar's
proprietary TreeWin software program to analyze the data
Sorbus offer a full site survey package to come to
your site and collect the relevant data for analysis and then
produce a full report on the information gathered.

The TRU system is under constant development to
further improve the level of information we can gain from it. To see
work that is currently under way to further improve this already
impressive equipment click

Root Inspection - "Virtual
Excavator"
-
Rapid, non-invasive inspection of subsurface
structural roots
-
Also detects buried pipes, cables, ducts,
etc
-
Depth penetration down to 1 metre - depths of
up to 3m+ can be obtained with the optional 400Mhz antenna
-
Minimal setup & scan times - typically 30
to 60 minutes for a multi-line scan
-
Scan either in straight lines parallel to tree
or in concentric circular lines around tree
-
Detection of structural roots as small as 0.5
inch (1.3 cm)
-
Subsurface 2D image of root location and depth
for each line scanned - "Virtual Excavator"
-
Top-down 3D image of root layout and
density
-
Detect and image roots under covered soil such
as asphalt and concrete
-

Trunk Inspection - "Virtual Drill"
-
Rapid, non-invasive inspection
-
Multi-elevation circumferential scans and
single point inspections possible
-
Minimal setup & scan times - entire
multi-elevation trunk scanned in 20 minutes
-
Image of predicted internal
cross-sectional view for each elevation scanned
-
