Tree Inventory Management

Collect Important Tree Data To Maximize Your Urban Forestry Resources

With decades of urban forestry management experience in cities large and small, Davey Resource Group, Inc. has the leadership and expertise to efficiently perform tree inventories of urban forests.

As a member of the USDA Forest Service’s i-Tree team, we can assess the value of individual trees or the overall benefits provided by trees in an entire neighborhood, city, or state.

TreeKeeper® Inventory Management Software

DRG's tree inventory services do more than simply count and identify the types of trees in an area.

We use the latest equipment and proprietary TreeKeeper® management software that serves as a valuable tool to help clients manage their urban forests from virtually anywhere.

TreeKeeper utilizes the latest GIS and GPS technologies to provide immediate tree inventory representation and precise planting site locations, which allows us to examine each tree and document tree health, maintenance needs, and potential risks.

All this information is available in a variety of digital and hard-copy formats to help clients analyze, develop, and execute priority projects in the future. Request a TreeKeeper Demo Today.

DRG’s team of ISA Certified Arborists® and ISA Board Certified Master Arborists® appreciate the incredible value trees provide to communities—from improved air quality to decreased energy use and costs.

What Is The State Of Your Urban Forest Program?

Knowing the state of your community’s urban forest program is essential for effectively and equitably growing and maintaining the urban forest in your community—and we can help!

Our professional urban foresters can help measure the state of your urban forest through tree inventories, strategic planning, or the development of an urban forest master plan.

To get started, we developed a self-assessment survey to help you analyze your urban forest program.

Based on your responses, our professionals will provide you with your own urban forest program analysis, including:

A graph of the Indicators of Your Urban Forest
A list of recommended next steps for your community

Why Should I Conduct A Tree Inventory? What Are The Benefits?

Tree inventories gather data such as size, species, and location, which are vital pieces of information for assessing and maintaining a thriving urban forest. Tree inventory data allows urban foresters to track each tree and document its health, maintenance needs, potential safety risks, and more. This information can be used to help prioritize, analyze, execute, and justify future urban forestry projects.
