OpenStreetMap has nearly 21 million individual trees mapped all throughout the world, but that data is highly localized and unevenly mapped. I was curious to see which countries have mapped more trees than we might expect, so decided to try comparing trees to area.

The inventory is looking good!

Interactive map using Deepscatter showing 680,000 street trees in New York from the tree census. observablehq.com/@bmschmidt/tre… This one is kind of neat technologically because it just plots an Arrow table straight in the browser.

#Brooklyn! @V6A_coLab and @land_interact are looking for people who have tree pits or sidewalk strips in front of their rentals or property that they would like to re-wild for increasing biodiversity and stormwater control. If this is you, form info → ayq5slpuj0t.typeform.com/to/Itpmney1

Great reporting from L.A., where city officials say they spend about $1,850 to procure and plant a single street tree — half of what it costs in NYC. Then they spend another $2,500 for their crews to allegedly hand water that tree for the next five years citywatchla.com/index.php/neig…

can datasets have bdays? 7 yrs ago on #ArborDay, together with @TreeKIT @azavea @uvmvermont's SAL, @NYCParks launched the 2015 street tree census, a citizen mapping project with 2,200+ volun-treers and 60+ community groups.


🪩Happy Birthday to all the TreeKIT'ns 💚

In the last week I've started to receive inquiries from people running tree planting programs wanting my help. I am suggesting that they shut down their programs. Here I will explain why:

This is interesting— have u heard of the “3-30-300 rule?” 3: Everyone should be able to see at least 3 trees from home 30: Cities should ensure a 30% tree canopy in all neighbourhoods 300: Everyone should have a park within 300 metres of home Via @IUCN iucnurbanalliance.org/promoting-heal…

Great looking treemap!

Then, you can use the layer_after, parameter to add on any number of additional guides, scales, and labels (beware conflicts as you mix & match layers) that you want to combine with the data. Save the results to an object and then combine w/ streets, buildings, etc. #mapbaltimore
