TreeSense GmbH: Innovative Tree Care through Sensor Technology
editKey Products and Services
editTreeSense GmbH is an innovative start-up specializing in the development and application of state-of-the-art sensor technology for urban tree management. The core product of the company is the TreeSense Pulse Sensor, a wearable device for trees that monitors the water balance and overall health of trees in real-time. This sensor measures the electrical impulse resistance in the xylem channels of the trees, allowing conclusions to be drawn about the water and nutrient supply of the plants. Additionally, data on sunlight and temperature is collected every 15 minutes and transmitted to the TreeSense cloud platform, where it is analyzed and visualized[2][3][4].
Main Mission and Values
editThe mission of TreeSense is to set new standards in urban tree management through the integration of sensor technology, scientific expertise, and innovative data analysis. The company aims to enable cities, communities, and businesses to make informed decisions to optimize their tree care and irrigation strategies. The focus is on efficient and targeted care that contributes to better resource utilization, significant cost savings, and the long-term health and vitality of the trees[2][3][4].
Sustainability Goals and Initiatives
editTreeSense is firmly committed to supporting the sustainable management of water, clean air, soil fertility, climate, as well as the protection of habitats and species. By optimizing irrigation plans and providing demand-oriented care for urban trees, the company contributes to resource efficiency and the preservation of healthy, resilient urban ecosystems. In the long term, TreeSense plans to establish its technology throughout Europe, thereby making a significant contribution to the sustainable and efficient development of urban living spaces[3][4][5].
Implementation and Partnerships
editThe TreeSense system can be implemented within 4-8 weeks after agreement and is tailored to the specific needs and requirements of the customers. The company works closely with cities, communities, and other partners to offer customized solutions. An example of this is the partnership with the municipality of Kirchheim and the Landesgartenschau Kirchheim 2024, where the first sensors have already been installed at various locations[3][4].
