How to Get Centimeter-Level 3D Data for Every Tree in Your Urban Garden?

-- 13 Nov 2025 --

Urban gardens are oases within concrete jungles, and ancient and famous trees are living fossils of history. However, traditional "tape measure plus visual estimation" management methods are no longer sufficient to handle the massive tree resources and the need for refined management. Data singularity, low efficiency, lack of dynamic monitoring, and insufficient depth of analysis have become the four major pain points troubling garden managers.

Now, the GreenValley International LiGrip O2 handheld LiDAR system, with its lightweight, high-precision 3D data acquisition capability, is bringing a "digital revolution" to urban garden and ancient tree preservation. It is like equipping every tree with a "3D scanner," giving managers the "digital eye" to see through the secrets of tree growth.

High-Efficiency Acquisition: Scanning a 25,000 m² Garden in 25 Minutes

Imagine having to survey the tree conditions in a representative area of a large garden like the Summer Palace. The traditional method would require several people working for days. But with the LiGrip O2, a single operator can scan approximately 25,000 m² in just 25 minutes!

Its advantage lies in being "light" and "fast": The device is lightweight and easy to carry, requiring no complex setup—just pick it up and go. The laser scanning technology is extremely efficient, not only rapidly capturing centimeter-level precision 3D point cloud data (simply put, a "digital point collection" that restores the tree's stereo shape) but also simultaneously taking high-resolution panoramic photos. The "raw materials" for subsequent analysis are all collected in one go.

There is no longer a need for manual, tree-by-tree measurement and data recording, making large-scale monitoring and high-frequency re-surveys easy to achieve.

In-Depth Analysis: From Single-Tree Parameters to Spatial Relationships

Relying on the powerful LiDAR360 post-processing software, massive point cloud data is quickly de-noised and classified, accurately segmenting out each individual tree. The "ID card information" and 3D morphology of every tree are crystal clear.

1. Precise Measurement:

  • DBH Error (Diameter at Breast Height): ≤0.5cm

  • Tree Height Error: ≤10cm

The software automatically and batch-extracts key parameters such as tree height, DBH, crown width (horizontal/vertical projection area), and height to crown base, generating detailed results tables with objective and consistent data.

2. 3D Visualization:

Point cloud data not only provides parameters but also builds a 3D model of the trees, directly showcasing their true shape and spatial location.

  • Elevation View: Clearly presents the vertical structural layers of the trees.

  • Cross-section View: Allows analysis of the trunk structure or the distance relationship between the tree and its surrounding environment (such as buildings and pipelines).

Managers can easily grasp the precise coordinates, morphology, and complex spatial relationship of each tree with its surroundings (e.g., canopy overlap, safe distance from buildings), providing unprecedented insight for refined management and preservation decisions.



III. What Problems Does It Solve for Garden Management?

Compared to traditional methods, the value of the LiGrip O2 goes beyond just "fast" and "accurate"; it helps garden management shift from "relying on experience" to "relying on data"

The LiGrip O2 handheld LiDAR system is redefining the management paradigm for urban gardens and ancient tree preservation with its efficient, precise, and comprehensive 3D data acquisition and analysis capabilities. It upgrades "empirical statistics" to "digital governance," making the growth trajectory of every green leaf clearly visible and preserving the years of history of every ancient tree for eternity.

Would you like me to elaborate on a specific feature of the LiGrip O2 system or the LiDAR360 software?
