Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for tree preservation planning of a selected tree within an existing landscape including hardscape elements. The critical root loss percentage can be determined based upon the diameter size of each tree being impacted. In addition, the disclosure provides a system for determining survivability of an impacted tree that takes into account a number of factors to ensure a survivability percentage of at least 70%.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for tree preservation efforts by determining a critical root zone of a selected tree within an existing landscape including hardscape elements. The critical root zones can be determined based upon the diameter size of each tree being impacted. The system includes generating a landscape map including visually representing the calculated critical root zone including any root zone loss within the existing landscape. In addition, the disclosure provides a system for determining survivability of an impacted tree that takes into account a number of factors to ensure a survivability percentage of at least 70%.
