Service Overview
- Soil Physical & Chemical Analysis
We precisely analyze the physical and chemical properties of soil required for forest spatial-information development, water-map production, and planting-site diagnosis.
- Diagnosis of Tree Damage Causes
We provide soil analysis and assessment data for diagnosing the causes of tree damage under the Tree Doctor system.
- Improvement of Urban Forest Soil Environments
Through soil-environment surveys and diagnostics for urban forest maintenance, we support the development of improvement measures.
Analysis Workflow
- 1Receipt
We check the arriving samples against the request form, register them, and assign a receipt number to each sample.
- 2Analysis
After pretreatment such as drying and preparation, we analyze the physical and chemical properties for each requested item.
- 3Issuance of Test Report
After verifying the results, we issue the test report and send it to the contact listed on the request form.
