👉 The Tree Project is an innovative, open-source initiative aimed at creating a global, collaborative platform for mapping and monitoring urban trees. It leverages crowdsourcing and community engagement to gather data on tree locations, species, health, and environmental impacts within cities. By integrating this data with geographic information systems (GIS), the project provides valuable insights for urban planners, policymakers, and environmentalists to enhance tree canopy coverage, improve urban biodiversity, and address climate change challenges. The platform encourages public participation through mobile apps and online tools, fostering a sense of community stewardship and enabling data-driven decision-making for sustainable urban development.
