Mapping the complete urban forest

Reference Type
Conference Proceedings (Chapter)

This paper discusses some of the tools and methods such as GIS, available to look at, study and map the natural resources in cities. [UMN]

"Comprehensive urban forest management should consider the complete set of natural resources in a community, including privately-owned trees. Tools such as aerial photography and geographic information systems allow urban foresters to study these resources and network with other municipal managers." [Abstract]
