About Tree Plotter INVENTORY
TreePlotter INVENTORY is a cloud-based GIS solution for field data collection and inventory management. Built on a web based GIS platform and optimized for mobile use, the app can be used by government, private businesses, and non-profit organizations worldwide. The cloud-based urban forestry software solution is designed specifically to support the plotting of tree inventories and the management of their data with a range of tools. Existing tree inventories can be imported, while new ones can be intuitively built by adding tree points and defining information attributes to an online map. Although GPS-capable, the browser-based application can be used replace typical GPS-powered inventory solutions with Geographic Information System (GIS) and web hosted technology accessible to any connected device.
Core functionality features include multiple, secured user accounts with privilege permissions depending on the type of application, the ability to add/edit tree data points on the geographical map display, the ability to import, export, and filter data, Google Street View functionality, and more. Users can utilize the tree details form to manage inventory information with "Load Last" and geocoding services for auto-populating spatial details.
Tree points can be viewed within Google Maps' Street View, subject to local service support, with current map extents or the apps "interactive legend" options savable to a web URL for easy sharing. Other notable aspects include data export to CSV or shapefile format, a mass update tool for applying batch data changes to multiple trees, plus a selection of add-on modules for optional feature expansion.

I would say the price but it makes up for it with a very hard work team that seems to be working every day to continue growing and improving

Tree Plotter taking Roots in Bennington

I use the Tree Plotter mostly to create and update our ever changing City Tree inventory but use it equally to assess risk in our parks and Arboretums. I enjoy the portability and it helps me plan ahead for our future plantings and tree development.
Pros
While I have only used Tree Plotter for less than a year, it is one of my most useful Arborist tools in my arsenal. We have been able to create an inventory of the City's trees (still a work in progress), identify the species, assess the tree health and condition, identify all the Ash trees and create a list of the ones we want to treat and the ones we want to remove, assess any potential public risk, create work orders and maintain a record of maintenance that will be passed down and shared with future City employees. I enjoy the mapping aspect of the program the most. I can go anywhere in the City and pull up the tree on my laptop and see what notes we have, assess any trimming needs and most recently, I have added the year the tree was planted (we plant 50-75 trees per year). I love the portability of this tool and enjoy the ease of use. This is a great resource to have.
Cons
There is very little that has been overlooked with this software. If there was anything that is lacking, I have yet to find it. The functionality is very intuitive and easy to use.
Response from PlanIT Geo
Wow, thanks for the amazing review John! I'm so happy to hear not only that you're using TreePlotter to its full potential but also how much value it brings to the City of Bennington. As always, happy plotting!

Pros
It's price point. This product is competitively priced. I appreciate the management functions built into a basic tree plotter. I appreciate Plan-It Geo ability (willingness) to customize at prices that are within reach of a non-profit.
Cons
Sometimes it get's a little buggy depending on how the Cellphone coverage is. The buttons could be bigger on the screen as well.
Response from PlanIT Geo
Thanks for your review Robert. We value your feedback in an effort to create the best possible user experience with Tree Plotter.
We will use your comment about the button layout in our design discussions. We also have an offline mode that could resolve your issue with wireless coverage.
Thanks Again!

The simplistic user interface makes it easy to learn and use, but having the data input window scroll and reset each time a data field is entered takes time to scroll back to the next data field to enter and is frustrating. The background aerial photos work well, but we want to be able to zoom to smaller scale in the Google Earth Map than the overall Tree Plotter subscription for the aerials allows. We usually download the shp files and make our own ArcGIS maps so we can input our company title block and needed labeling, and to allow for setting the print scale to not have overlapping points.
We continue to use and expand our use of Tree Plotter, and continue to provide useful feedback and revision ideas to Plan It Geo staff for improving the program. Thanks for working with us for a better shared environment.
Pros
Operates well in any mobile device we have used from tablets and handheld data recorders to phones. The real time and multi user environment allows us to both monitor our staff in the field and also for everyone to work cooperatively in completing inventories and damage assessments. We use Tree Plotter for full landscape inventories and contractor work audits, as well as tree surveys and tree inventories.
Cons
We do not want our work, or our client list, to be visible to others, as we have many competitive advantages and legally protected work products in our projects. Having our Tree Plotter account visible to anyone who can enter the url has been an issue for us that we want resolved so our account is not publically visible at all.
Response from PlanIT Geo
Hi John-
Thanks for the review! We appreciate it. Also, we'll be reaching out regarding the data visibility you mentioned and hopefully taking care of that for you.

Overall, I like that this software is relatively easy to use, highly customizable, and is integrated with many of the programs we already use. I only wish that it was more compatible with similar programs to make collaboration with our partner organizations easier.
Pros
I like that this software is very customizable and can be built to serve our organization's specific needs, which helps us stay really organized. I also like that TreePlotter has export to Excel capabilities and Google Maps integration.
Cons
I wish the admin level users had even more editing/customization capabilities and control over the order of specific fields. I also wish there was better cross compatibility with other similar programs as not all the organizations we work with use TreePlotter.
