Whether you are preparing a development application, managing a large green space, or seeking a complete inventory of trees on your property, ArbCert delivers accurate, professional tree surveys across New South Wales.
Our AQF Level 5 consulting arborists use advanced GIS mapping and spatial analysis technology to assess, identify, and report on tree populations. From schools and universities to parks, golf courses, commercial precincts, and residential developments, we provide clear data to help clients make informed, responsible, and compliant tree management decisions.
A tree survey is a comprehensive assessment of all trees within a defined site. Each tree is individually identified, mapped, and tagged, with critical details recorded including:
The survey results are compiled into a detailed arborist report that supports site planning, development compliance, tree risk management, and long-term asset management.
Tree surveys provide essential information to guide planning, improve tree management, and deliver cost-effective outcomes. By identifying the condition, location, and significance of trees, a professional tree survey report supports compliance while helping landowners and developers make informed decisions.
Accurate tree surveys identify which trees may influence development layouts or affect Development Application (DA) approvals. Detailed, standards-based reporting ensures councils and consent authorities receive the information they require for assessment and approval.
A comprehensive tree inventory gives landowners, schools, and asset managers a clear record of their tree resources. This helps highlight trees needing retention, intervention, or removal and provides an evidence-based foundation for long-term management.
Tree surveys allow clients to forecast current and future tree management costs. By prioritising works and allocating resources effectively, they reduce unexpected expenses and support sustainable management strategies.
ArbCert’s tree survey reports are detailed, site-specific, and aligned with industry standards to support both development compliance and effective tree management. Each survey can be tailored to your project’s requirements and may include:
