🌳 Cities face a growing challenge: How do you build a highly accurate, scalable tree inventory, and keep it alive over time, without exploding costs?
On one side, mobile LiDAR captures thousands of trees with engineering-grade precision, delivering unmatched positioning and morphometrics.
On the other, arborists remain essential to assess tree health, risks, and structural integrity in the field.
And without a strong GIS, even the best data quickly becomes outdated.
👉 The reality: you need all three.
That’s why Jakarto and PlanIT Geo are joining forces to introduce a new approach: TreeD hybrid tree Inventory.
A seamless solution combining:
- Advanced LiDAR-based data acquisition
- Targeted expert field validation
- And TreePlotter for day-to-day urban forest management
How it works
1. Technology does the heavy lifting
Jakarto processes LiDAR data to generate a high-precision baseline inventory.
2. Human expertise where it matters most
Field inspections are targeted, focusing on trees identified as at-risk through digital analysis.
3. A living inventory
All data is centralized in TreePlotter, enabling real-time updates, work order management, and ecosystem service analysis.

What about existing inventories?
TreeD doesn’t replace your data — it enhances it.
We map each existing tree to its digital counterpart to:
- Correct past GPS inaccuracies
- Update morphometrics
- Preserve historical records
From virtual inspections to automated planting site identification, everything works as a connected ecosystem.
