  • Tree Transplanting — Preliminary Feasibility & Logistics Estimator

    Tree Transplanting — Preliminary Feasibility & Logistics Estimator

    Successful tree transplanting requires both logistical precision and arboricultural knowledge. To simplify the process, I’ve built an online Tree Transplant Calculator that helps you determine the necessary dimensions and equipment for your move. Why? Because most people don’t know the basic logistical requirements involved in successful tree transplanting.

    Planning with Accuracy

    This tool helps you estimate root ball size and crane capacity by inputting tree DBH, height, lift radius (crane reach requirements), soil density, and wood density with tooltips for each parameter to help determine the values required for more accurate calculations.

    You can calculate the values for multiple trees and download the results in a PDF or CSV format.

    A Tool, Not a Plan

    Please note this is an estimating tool, not a final lift plan. It is designed to assist your planning and coordination with lifting supervisors, but a professional must always verify manufacturer load charts and create a formal Method Statement before any operation begins.

    Get Started

    You can access the calculator here: Tree Transplant Calculator. For more on the arboricultural side, check out our Basic Tree Transplanting guide, or reach out if you need professional services for your specific project.

  • Effects of Trees in Urban Spaces, Auroville, India

    A presentation I gave providing a brief glimpse into the effects that trees have on our lives and surroundings in an urban setting.

    Presentation starts at 3:30.

    Recently, in urban settings, trees are being used more as green infrastructure providing ecosystem services rather than merely street furniture. This presentation illustrates some ways in which this applies.

    This presentation uses examples from the U.S, the U.K. and from India, where I am based. It includes the positive and negative effects and ways to improve matters with existing trees as well as potential trees. It is based on experience and research from around the world.

    This is relevant for architects, town planners, municipal corporations, engineers, landscapers and anybody interested in improving urban forests through arboriculture.

     

  • South Indian House and Roadside Tree Properties Survey

    roadside trees India

    This is a survey that will hopefully gather the information needed to improve the selection of roadside trees and trees near houses in South East India.

    One of the most important factors for roadside and house trees here is to provide shade during the hot summer months. Many deciduous trees in non-temperate regions lose their leaves during this time.

    The other most important factor is the ability to survive in the heat and scarce water conditions without high maintenance schedules.

    The potential trees are therefore drought resistant and most are evergreen but other aspects have also been taken into consideration.

    Please forward this to anyone who may be able to provide feedback of any sort or help out in some way.

    Here is the link to the survey

    Thank you,
