2023: Fibre optic expansion leads to increase in importance of monitoring trees

Trees passed in 2023

Hundreds of thousands of households are also expected to be connected again in 2023. A well-known parameter in the world of fibre is homes passed, households that (can) be connected. This again means a lot of digging, often near trees. Our practice shows that when fibre is installed, some 30% to sometimes even 50% of trees in an area come into view. The number of trees passed is also an important parameter! This is then expected to involve hundreds of thousands to over a million by 2023 trees passed. Similar numbers are also involved in subsequent years. So it is a matter of getting a good picture of the environment and all those trees!

Environment well in view 

When designing, the designers face a big task to get the surroundings and trees right. Staff pressure is already high, so it is important to work efficiently and move quickly. With NEO's tree risk service, all those trees (including those on private land) and their root zones are well mapped in advance. This information allows us to work more efficiently. This shortens the lead time and reduces the risks. This benefits the contractor, the client and the residents. Besides trees, NEO also maps out the paving, so that the design can also take into account the costs of repairing paving and asphalt and the like.

With the Tree risk services NEO makes designing and laying cables and pipelines less risky, easier and more efficient, and therefore more cost-effective.

We care about our planet, which is why we keep a close eye...

NEO captures objects from above and monitors changes smartly and accurately. In doing so, we create data and insights that directly contribute to your challenge.

Curious what that will bring you?
