DESCRIPTION:Street tree inventories are fundamentally important for municipal urban forest management\, but collecting and maintaining inventory data is expensive and time-consuming. So we asked the question\, “Can we generate high-quality data about street trees remotely using online street-level photos?” This presentation discusses the level of detail and data quality associated with virtual surveys conducted using Google Street View. Attendees will learn about some pros and cons of these virtual surveys\, and consider whether this simple online technique might be useful for generating street tree data in their own communities. \n\n\n\nBio: Dr. Adam Berland is an Assistant Professor of Geography at Ball State University. He studies patterns and drivers of change in the geographic distribution of urban trees using field data and geospatial technologies. Recently he has been studying innovative ways of generating street tree data using free tools and simple techniques. \n\n\n\n1 CEU with live broadcast.

Bicycle riders from around the world participate\, each committed to raising a minimum of $3\,500 for the TREE Fund. The TREE Fund solicits sponsors to cover all the costs of the 7-day event so 100% of the funds raised by the riders go to support research and scholarship. This event not only raises money\, but it raises public awareness of the need for professional tree care. Along the route there are educational events for kids\, public tree planting ceremonies\, media interviews and TV\, radio\, magazine\, social media and newspaper coverage that reach millions of people nationally and around the world. \n\n\n\nThe benefits of this event to Wisconsin Arborists are huge. Nearly everything we do to care for trees is driven by research and education\, much of it funded in part by the TREE Fund through its grant programs and student scholarships including the Bob Skiera Memorial Fund which the WAA initiated and is working to endow. The WAA is committed to research-based arboriculture and encourages members to support the TREE Fund through donations to Wisconsin’s riders in the Tour des Trees. Despite that\, historically only about 15% of members donate. \n\n\n\nMeet the Wisconsin Riders and Pledge Your Support\n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nDoug Drysdale\n \n Meet and Donate\n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nJeffrey Edgar\n \n Meet and Donate\n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nDick Rideout\n \n Meet and Donate\n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nTeam Kitty\n \n Meet and Donate\n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n Past Tour des Trees Photos URL:https://www.waa-isa.org/tribe-events/tour-des-trees-and-the-tree-fund/ LOCATION:WI CATEGORIES:Green Industry Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.waa-isa.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Tour-des-Trees-fetaured-image.png END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
