PiCUS
PiCUS TreeTronic Description
The electrical resistance tomograph PiCUS TreeTronic is used for detailed tree examinations as part of road safety inspections in combination with the PiCUS Sonic Tomograph in order to determine more precisely the remaining wall thickness as well as more detailed information about the type and extent of damage. The electrical resistance tomography of the PiCUS TreeTronic show in particular the early stages of rot and help to interpret sonic tomograms if they provide blurred images due to cracks in the tree. The measurement method is abbreviated with the letters ERT (Electric Resistance Tomography).
The measurement results of the electrical resistance tomograph (ERT) can be displayed in 2D and 3D graphics using the PiCUS Expert software. This shows the extent of the defect in gradations. The 3D view also shows the vertical course of the damage. This data can be used to make a forecast of how the tree’s resistance to breakage will develop over the next few years.
