New AI Map category: Bushes / Shrubs

The AI Map automatically classifies a property into landscape and surface categories, such as lawn, beds, hedges, trees, buildings, paved surfaces, and more.

Duranta now includes a separate Bushes / Shrubs category to make plant detection and property measurements more precise.

What changed

Previously, many low woody plantings were grouped under Hedges.

Now, Duranta separates them into two categories:

  • Hedges — continuous, linear plantings, such as a trimmed boundary hedge.

  • Bushes / Shrubs — individual bushes, shrubs, or clustered plantings.

This gives you a cleaner property breakdown and more accurate measurements for estimates, proposals, and service planning.

  • Hedges

  • Bushes / Shrubs

  • Trees

  • Buildings

  • Fence

  • Paved surfaces

  • Sidewalks

  • Parking lots

  • Ground

Where you’ll see Bushes / Shrubs

AI Map / Segments view

Bushes / Shrubs appears as its own category with its own color on the AI Map.

This makes it easier to distinguish shrubs from hedges, beds, lawn, and trees.

Area breakdowns

Property measurements now include a separate Bushes / Shrubs area alongside Hedges.

This helps you estimate shrub-related work separately from hedge trimming, bed maintenance, or lawn care.

Good to know

Existing properties may need to be processed again by the AI before the new Bushes / Shrubs category appears.

Because bushes and shrubs are shown as an overlapping layer, you may see them on top of another category, such as a bed or lawn. This is expected and helps preserve both the plant coverage and the underlying surface area.

Tips

  • Use Hedges for continuous, linear plantings.

  • Use Bushes / Shrubs for individual or grouped shrubs.

  • Check the area breakdown when preparing estimates or proposals.

  • In the 3D view, use layers to show or hide bushes and shrubs while inspecting the property.
