36,000+ Trees Mapped for Smarter Urban Forestry 


The Challenge:

Karlstad City needed a large-scale tree inventory across nine districts, including municipal and private land. Traditional methods were too slow and costly, making their 3-30-300 urban forestry goals unattainable. They required an efficient solution to assess tree health, identify risks, and provide actionable insights.

The Solution:

Arboair’s AI-powered aerial analysis rapidly created a detailed tree database, cataloging over 36,000 trees and mapping damaged branches with high precision. 

"The map of damaged trees and defective branches provides a real view of the status in the districts, and the result is correct in the real world as well." – Karlstad Stad





The Results:

  • Complete Inventory: A full dataset of urban trees for informed planning.
  • Cost & Time Savings: Faster, significantly cheaper than manual surveys.
  • Risk Insights: High-precision damage mapping for proactive safety measures.
  • Data-Driven Decisions: Empowering arborists, planners, and park managers.
  • Progress Toward 3-30-300: A measurable baseline for future urban forestry goals.

Arboair’s technology gives Karlstad Stad the data they need to manage trees more efficiently, reduce risks, and plan for a greener city.
