Abstract
Tree Preservation Order (TPO) is used to protect specific trees from damage and destruction. However, the current criteria and process of determining a TPO are vague and subjective in the UK. TPO data in many London boroughs are stored in paper form, with a cumbersome and lengthy application process. It is a barrier for both urban development and environmental protection. This research collected and analysed TPO data in Greater London and developed a multi-input deep learning model to detect potential TPOs in areas without public TPO data. The deep learning method is more efficient and accurate than traditional GIS or surveying methods. The research outcomes are useful for governments agencies, real estate developers and environmental organisations and can be extended to other areas.
