With TreeRadar GPR Root-finder we map tree roots and provide information of the subsurface environment.
With TreeRadar GPR Root-finder we map tree roots and provide information of the subsurface environment.
Tree Root Radar is a non-invasive technique, operates without excavations, site disturbances or mess. Tree Radar will scan through concrete, tarmac and soil surfaces.
With the sophisticated TBA software Peter Barton Associates accurately chart tree root positions.
For added value, uniquely, Peter Barton Associates use TreeRadar to plot other underground targets including foundations, services, voids and much more. We can map badger tunnels.
Root sizing

Peter Barton Associates long established experience enables us to provide complete advice on a range of sizes by analysing root morphology and proliferation. We also assess soil amplitude reflections, radargrams profiles to provide the most reliable root size estimates available.

Peter Barton Associates are well placed to provide the best available advice on root sizes, classes and morphology.

We regularly verify software root predictions with "ground truthing" excavations, measuring and verifying actual root sizes to TBA software outputs.
Much of our work is fed-back to TreeRadar Inc. in the USA.

Being non-invasive, GPR scanning is without mess and there's no damage to tree roots. Tree Radar GPR can scan through reinforced concrete, tarmac in addition to soil surfaces.

Peter Barton Associates provide clear unequivocal advice on design relationship of buildings, roads, utilities and other structures close to trees and within the RPA.
Our Arb-GPR technicians work on site with structures teams setting out piles/foundations; we locate and verify roots positions pinpointing root free locations.
