The Reliability of a Windshield Survey to Locate Hazards in Roadside Trees
This factsheet contains information about windshield survey issues, methodology, the results of the windshield survey, comparison surveys, developed and undeveloped analysis, a discussion and conclusion.
The windshield survey of 100% of town roads was intended to accomplish several things. First, it provided the data set for comparison with the traditional walking inspection. Second, the windshield survey was used to collect hazard tree data that would be given to the town’s tree warden and the local electric company once the project was completed. Those data would be used to remediate hazard trees.
