What You Need to Know About Urban Tree Canopy and Artificial Intelligence.

A New Era of Data-Driven Urban Forestry

 

Tree equity. Climate resilience. Storm damage.

 

There is a lot to be gained by viewing the urban forest from above. Cities and nonprofits use tree canopy data to get a comprehensive picture of where trees are, where they’ve been lost, and crucially, where they are needed most in the future.

 

The good news is that the traditional, complex, and expensive tree canopy mapping process is evolving. Subscription-based, artificial intelligence-driven tree canopy data is more accessible and affordable than ever, and communities of all sizes are taking advantage. We’re glad to be a leading figure in this technical evolution. Explore these resources to learn more about urban tree canopy and artificial intelligence.
