  1. Thoughts on hard hat whilst surveying; if for what are health and safety benefits, if against what are main factors to support this. Cheers
  2. Thank you all for your comments, I will look at the exclamation type sign with tree surveying and robust risk assessment etc, PPE as required by client (full high viz) and plenty of due care and attention. Cheers
  3. Looking to carry out survey on various roads appreciate governed by highways criteria to a degree but would you suggest men at work with tree surveying attached to bottom of sign or the exclamation mark with same detail. Mindful that we are not blocking carriageway I.e. parking van in side road and surveying along highways verge? Any advice what current practice is gratefully accepted
  4. Ok thanks I have contacted tree alert just in case as I have not seen anything similar in this area before
  5. Found these holes at base of sycamore I am thinking ALB; any comments / ideas?
  6. Site is controlled by barrier access to industrial units so prior contact by telephone is required
  7. Definitely pear smell & taste. Thank you for all your input ?
  8. I will carry out operation tomorrow and cut the beast in half for a seed check
  9. Pear was one I was thinking (this is the tree). The fruit actually looks like a large quince .
  10. 6 - 7m high tree (I've got an idea between two species but want to test the experts)
  11. Yeh it's in rugged case I will see if I can put something together cheers [emoji106]
  12. I am currently using a 10" Samsung galaxy tab with software to carry out tree surveys and am looking for a chest harness to carry the unit hands free: does anyone know where I can purchase such, as I have had no joy from my contact with Samsung ??
  13. Cheers [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
  14. Picture taken today of basal fruiting bodies around quercus rubra
  15. Any offers of this fungus at base of ash ?
  16. Adjacent sycamore weren't peeling and shedding like this one - anything to do with drought ?
  17. Tree healthy in canopy any ideas why shedding ?
  18. Laser rangefinder - any comments experience best value model etc
  19. Hi Steve Thanks for your reply, yes, I think you are right but we want to link the financial side of things to the tree database we have built instead of the two systems standing alone. I have seen one piece of tree business tailored software which gives you drop down lists on your menu for works description etc and relevant information for all tree related jobs (obviously you can have this drop down data as you like.). Could I ask what system you use yourself for the day to day running of your business?
  20. Hi Could anyone advise what systems they are using to log a job from customer enquiry through to submission / payment of invoice etc. We currently use a basic database format to store all of our clients etc and the financial side of things is completed through SAGE. I was wondering if anyone uses a tailored system for arboriculture ?? Many thanks in anticipation of your replies / advice
  21. Any advice for best value GPS receivers to work in tandem with OTISS software on android device (say 1 -3m accuracy)?
  22. Thank you for your response, any comments 're arb significance ?
  23. Is this early kretzschmaria on lime (dark staining at about 2m a.g.l.)?
