Risk-Based Vegetation Planning

Prioritize the Spans That Put Your Grid Most at Risk

Using satellite imagery and AI, Treeline scores every span by risk type, proximity, and asset criticality, giving managers a clear risk map to plan effectively by prioritizing high-risk spans, allocating resources wisely, and directing crews where they’re needed most to cut cost and improve reliability.

The Problem

You Can’t Prioritize

What You Can’t See

Vegetation management decisions are only as strong as the data behind them. But with data fragmented across patrol reports, aerial surveys, and contractor notes, utilities rarely have the full picture of where risk truly lies. That lack of visibility forces crews into reactive work, spreads budgets too thin, and allows high-risk spans to slip through unnoticed, until they become outages, compliance failures, or costly emergency interventions.

No System-Wide View Means Misplaced Spend

Patrol reports and spot checks provide isolated snapshots, not a complete view of issues or how they compare across the network. Without a holistic risk view, planners struggle to direct crews toward the spans that matter most, driving up costs while critical spans go untreated.

Siloed Data Blocks Long-Term Strategy

Vegetation data is often locked in district- or vendor-specific systems, making benchmarking and consistent planning nearly impossible. This fragmentation prevents utilities from building long-term strategies and leaves leadership without the defensible insight regulators demand.

No Forecasting Means Constant Catch-Up

Traditional approaches stop at “what’s there now.” Without forecasting future clearance risks, utilities stay stuck in a cycle of catch-up, where risks escalate between cycles and budgets are consumed by unplanned interventions instead of proactive planning.

How Utilities Plan Smarter With Treeline

By combining satellite imagery, AI, and multi-factor scoring, Treeline helps utilities identify high-risk spans, forecast clearance issues, and align crews around the areas that matter most.

Automated Risk Detection and Classification

Build the Foundation for Smarter Planning

Treeline continuously detects grow-in, fall-in, and hazard trees across the network. By replacing partial snapshots with complete, system-wide visibility, planners finally get a reliable baseline for prioritization and long-term vegetation strategy.

Risk Prioritization Engine

Rank Spans by Real Risk, Not Guesswork

Each span is scored through a multi-factor model that considers vegetation type, growth rate, proximity, and grid criticality. Interactive dashboards and exportable work items give planners a clear hierarchy of risk, helping direct crews and budgets toward the spans most likely to cause outages.

Work Management

Turn Risk Maps Into Targeted Work Plans

Treeline converts prioritized risks into map-based work orders with built-in QA and context. Crews receive clear instructions, supervisors see progress in real time, and every intervention is logged with proof, ensuring resources are allocated effectively and consistently.

How does Treeline help utilities prioritize vegetation risk?

Treeline scores every span based on vegetation type, growth rate, proximity, and asset criticality, giving planners a clear hierarchy of where action is most urgent.

Can Treeline consolidate data from different contractors and districts?

Yes. Treeline unifies vegetation insights into a single system-wide view, making it possible to compare risks, benchmark performance, and build long-term strategies.

Does Treeline provide forecasting or only current conditions?

Treeline goes beyond snapshots of “what’s there now” by modeling growth trends and clearance risks over time, helping utilities plan ahead instead of reacting after risks escalate.

Will Treeline integrate with our existing planning and work systems?

Absolutely. Treeline connects with GIS and WFM platforms like ESRI, SAP, Trimble, and Clearion, turning prioritized risk insights directly into actionable work orders.
