Managing our tree heritage :

A key need for local authorities

The tree heritage management is essential for communities. Not only does it help preserve the environment, but it also improves the quality of life for citizens. The integration of a intervention management system to monitor tree condition, plan interventions/inspections and optimize management of available resources.

Tree care: an ecological and urban necessity

Tree heritage management covers all activities relating to the preservation, maintenance and enhancement of trees. in public spaces. This includes planting, pruning, felling and monitoring tree health. With increasing environmental concerns and the need for sustainable urbanization, it is imperative to implement effective strategies to manage these natural resources.

Why is it crucial for local authorities to optimize the management of their tree assets using an IT tool?

  • Improving urban health: Regular monitoring helps maintain the health of trees, contributing to biodiversity and improving air quality in the area.
  • Resource optimization: The use of digital tools helps to optimize the human and financial resources allocated to maintenance activities.
  • Citizen awareness and involvement: A tree management system also enables communities to raise citizen awareness of the importance of trees and better promote the work of local agents.
  • Integration of other services : The management of interventions in large areas is not specific to tree care. Tools can therefore be configured to integrate other services: street cleaning, territorial interventions, etc.

Digitization: the cornerstone of effective tree management

The tools for managing and referencing tree assets are used to centralize all the information needed to maintain trees throughout their life cycle. Here are the main modules that make up this system:

    1. Tree inventory module :
      • Inventory of trees and green spaces, enabling comprehensive management of their condition and location. This module enables you to create a precise digital inventory, facilitating the identification and classification of trees (by species, by category (remarkable, heritage, ordinary, etc.), etc.). It is also possible to define information on dimensions, location, etc.
    2. Tree condition monitoring :
      • Integration of tree health data, including observations on diseases, infestations and environmental conditions.
    3. Declaration of Intervention requests :
      • Recording of work to be carried out, including the tree or trees associated with it, priority, nature of the work to be carried out, dates when it is to be carried out and the person responsible for carrying out the work. It can be used by managers to organize activities, by elected representatives, by citizens (via a citizen application) or by agents for proactive management.
      • Automatic notification to affected agents via system-generated alerts.
    4. Service planning :
      • Organize work to be carried out on trees, making it easier to plan interventions according to seasons and maintenance intervals. This module helps you draw up a maintenance schedule and prioritize work according to tree condition.
      • Allows you to manage job processing statuses with associated completion processes.
    5. Historical module :
      • Allows you to track the history of tree maintenance work, whether pruning, trimming or other operations. This module centralizes all information relating to interventions, guaranteeing traceability and increased efficiency.
    6. Map display :
      • Interactive tree mapping for easy visualization of tree condition and location.
      • Functionality enabling you to view the work to be carried out according to coloring by status or criticality. This not only acts as an effective monitoring tool, but also helps to optimize intervention itineraries.
    7. Inspections and subcontracting portal :
      • Allows external inspectors to enter information in digital format, with no additional effort on the part of the local authority. This data can then be verified by the agents.
      • Otherwise, reports are capitalized on by local authorities, which may or may not digitize all or part of the data.
    8. Planning and reporting :
        • Analysis tools to assess the effectiveness of interventions and plan future actions.
        • Automated reports on the general condition of the tree stock and the interventions carried out, facilitating decision-making and communication with stakeholders.

Tree management is a crucial issue for local authorities. By integrating TEEXMA for MaintenanceWith this new tool, local authorities can not only monitor the condition of their trees, but also optimize their interventions and promote sustainable management of their natural and human resources. The use of this digital and cartographic tool offers promising prospects for meeting today’s biodiversity challenges. Thanks to its configurability, the tool can be used to cover the activities of other departments and much more besides.
