Well this seems to have sparked some useful debate. My initial question was
prompted for the reasons Dom stated. Much of the survey work I am
undertaking involves large numbers of trees and to try and identify them
from a drawing minus the aid of GPS would be impossibility. With a numbered
tag the margin for error is greatly reduced. GPS is all well and good for
the surveyor however if the end user (client) doesn't have the same
capabilities the technology is wasted.

Dom makes a good point.
Most of the time I don't tag trees because I'm usually doing some kind
of planning related job with a reasonable quality CAD drawing. However
I've just had to do a pruning spec / tender doc for a lot of trees along
a drive, the CAD drawing is OK, but I have tagged them as well, as it
will make life easier for the contractors to price and carry out the
work. In this case the tags don't need to be long lasting, in fact the
owners aren't keen on seeing them, so they are light ally ones tacked on
with short staples and can be removed once the work is done.
