Title

Tree Stability Monitoring System

Business Needs / Challenges

Tree safety is an important aspect of tree management in the urban areas of Hong Kong.  There is a need to develop a monitoring system which can detect changes in tree stability so as to alert tree owners of unusual tree movements so that they can take timely preventive measures, such as seeking professional advice on tree health in good time.

Application Areas

City Management
Environment
