Just one tree can shape your entire project.

From design and approvals through to construction, significant trees can influence project outcomes in ways that aren’t always obvious at the outset. Understanding their true form early can help teams make better-informed decisions and avoid costly surprises.

Download our free guide to learn how tree scanning and 3D modelling can support:

Tree retention strategies
Design coordination
Development applications
Aboricultural assessments
Construction planning
Stakeholder engagement and transparency

Significant trees deserve more than assumptions.

Too often, important design decisions are based on canopy circles, simplified survey symbols or incomplete information.

When retained trees influence building envelopes, access arrangements, services coordination or construction methodology, project teams need a more accurate understanding of the tree’s actual form.

This guide explains how high-resolution laser scanning, UAV capture and 3D modelling can provide survey-grade spatial data that improves confidence across planning, design and construction phases.


Inside the guide

Designing around existing trees

Understand how accurate 3D tree models can help identify conflicts earlier and support more responsive design outcomes.

Supporting Arboricultural Assessments

See how survey-grade tree data can assist arborists in assessing canopy spread, branch structure and tree retention requirements.

Improving Stakeholder Confidence

Learn how visualisation and spatial data can help communicate design intent to councils, project teams and community stakeholders.

Reducing Construction Risk

Explore how detailed tree models can inform access planning, protection zones and construction methodologies.

Integrating with Design Platforms

Understand how tree scan data can be incorporated into CAD, BIM and visualisation workflows.
