Industrial Strength: Get a handle on unruly roadsides by implementing integrated vegetation management

摘要

A single tree coming into contact with a high-voltage transmission line can cause an electrical failure that affects millions of customers. Vegetation that hinders line of sight on a road or serves as a collision obstacle can lead to a fatal accident.Weeds growing on railroad ballast may obscure a defect in the track. These settings are examples of where vegetation needs to be managed to maintain function of a man-made system. The emphasis is not on aesthetics and the funding available to do the work is usually a tiny fraction of your overall budget.
