Cleaner fuels and battery-powered equipment are accelerating the green transition in arboriculture. But what does this shift look like in practice? A panel of experts explore where sustainable innovation has the most significant impact and how safety protocols and training must evolve to accommodate these new tools. They'll discuss integrating environmental progress with safe and practical implementation for a more sustainable future.
3D technology and virtual reality are no longer niche innovations; they are reshaping the way arboriculture is taught, practiced and promoted. Callum Throw of Arb Innovators will demonstrate how these technologies can deliver safe, effective training, provide richer insights for clients as part of tree surveys as well as open new possibilities for education, careers engagement and raising the awareness of arboriculture.
Is your risk management protocol leading to unnecessary or premature tree felling? This common challenge often stems from relying solely on visual assessment and results from the doubt of dealing with the unknown or unseen. In this seminar, Ian Barnes, director of Barnes Associates, will demonstrate how to make confident, preservation-focused decisions using cutting-edge technology provided by its trading arm, Tree Diagnostics. Discover how its specialist equipment goes beyond mere estimates to provide quantifiable data on a tree's health, structural integrity and stability by seeing the unseen.
