Date and Time: March 29 (Tuesday) at 17:00 GMT
Topic: FOSS/FOSS4G in Urban Forestry Applications in the USA
Presenter: Ian Hanou, Plan-it GEO http://www.planitgeo.com/

Talk abstract:

This presentation will introduce the use of FOSS/FOSS4G applications
for urban forest management, outreach and planning. Case studies will
highlight web/mobile apps from municipal, private and nonprofit
sectors across the country. The first examples will focus on mobile
field data collection, data management, maintenance tracking and
reporting for urban tree inventories of parks, streets and private
property planting projects. The second half will take a big picture
view of the entire urban forest at a landscape scale using urban tree
canopy assessment data in interactive online mapping applications.
These tools will show how progressive organizations can view, plan,
and grow their urban forest without knowledge of GIS software or
training in data management.
