Flagship Capabilities

Vegetation classification parameters

Configurable parameters driving automated pruning work orders.

Danger-zone classification inputs

Clearance Distance Line-Voltage Specific

Minimum 3D buffer envelope from conductor to surrounding canopy returns.

Growth-Rate Buffer Species-Informed
