The in's and out's of it...

Well what a week we have had this week!  We have been mainly working on a geographical information system for a housing association in the West Midlands.  Three specialist surveyors have been on this full time for two weeks now with office support when required.  They are building up a database of information so the GIS teams can access up to date tree data at their figure tips.

We have also carried out a visual tree assessment and report for two single trees in a domestic setting in North Wales, a couple of PICUS sonic tomographs where the internal condition of a tree is built up in a 2d image using the principle that sound wood conducts sound waves better than decayed wood.  Some arboricultural site supervision work on a building site and some Health and Safety support for a tree surgeons in North Wales.

We are finding the Health and Safety role is one that is becoming increasingly called upon from the arboricultural industry, our support enables companies to get through the rigorous post tender assessments that actually allow them to get onto site and carry out what they do best!

For example we have recently produced to site health and safety folders, one for a large road scheme and one for a wind farm, we will then go to site and make sure all present fully understand the information before work commences.  It is no good instructing a consultancy to prepare documents you don't understand!  We fully believe our support service are second to none.

Thanks to Brett, Rob, Matt, Anne and Kevin for working so hard this week!
