Open Urban Forests: Establishing the First National View of Urban Forestry Geospatial Data in Canada
Open Urban Forests Establishing the First National View of Urban Forestry Geospatial Data in Canada is a centralised national hub for monitoring tree cover, tree planting, carbon storage, and long-term trends in urban forests. This interactive learning hub offers a number of benefits to stakeholders in the urban forestry, planning, and allied fields including planning, landscape architecture, GIS, technology, geography, and others. Data from this hub can be used to support decision-making and measure the continuous effects of climate change and other trends on urban forests across Canada.
