SUMMARY:New Urban Forestry Podcast - Internet of Nature
DESCRIPTION:PlanIT Geo Partners with the Internet of Nature Podcast to Scout the Future of Urban ForestryArvada\, CO — PlanIT Geo™\, the industry leader in urban forestry software and consulting services\, has partnered with the Internet of Nature Podcast to explore the future of urban forestry over a 10-episode season. The Internet of Nature Podcast\, created and hosted by Dr. Nadina Galle\, uses interviews with thought-leaders and innovators to answer the question: Can nature and technology — long viewed as opposing forces — work together to create liveable cities and improve public health?This collaboration was born out of a shared enthusiasm for trees and technology. As pioneers of urban forestry software\, PlanIT Geo worked with Dr. Galle to select nine key topics facing the future of urban forestry. Dr. Galle will interview experts from the public\, private\, or nonprofit sectors to unpack each topic and discuss the implications for cities of the future.Expect powerful stories\, questions usually shied away from\, and the latest ideas from those working to tackle urban forestry’s biggest challenges. New episodes will be released on Wednesdays and are available on all major podcast platforms. The first episode will be released on April 5th here. Each episode will also have a companion blog expanding on the discussion released here.“Over four seasons and now into its fifth\, the Internet of Nature Podcast has pushed the conversation on nature and technology forwards\, inspiring a global audience along the way. We are thrilled to launch this collaboration and contribute to the rock star lineup of guest speakers on the future of urban forestry in partnership with our friend and colleague\, Dr. Nadina Galle” said Ian Hanou\, PlanIT Geo’s Founder & CEO.“Given PlanIT Geo’s history and legacy in helping cities pave a greener path with its software and services\, it was a natural step to partner together. PlanIT Geo embodies the mission behind the Internet of Nature Podcast – which is to equip arborists\, planners\, and green professionals with the necessary tools for creating nature-rich communities that utilize technology in a responsible manner. \,” said Dr. Nadina Galle\, creator\, and host of the Internet of Nature Podcast.–Since 2012\, PlanIT Geo has been providing cutting-edge technology and planning services for urban forestry\, parks management\, and arboriculture. The TreePlotter™ Software Suite is used by governments\, nonprofit organizations\, universities\, and the private industry around the world. The PlanIT Geo team is driven by a passion for trees and technology\, and is widely regarded as an innovator and trusted partner in urban and community forestry programs.Coined in 2019\, the Internet of Nature® is a revolutionary approach to safeguarding and fostering an appreciation for urban nature. It combines emerging technologies with creative solutions aimed at protecting\, restoring\, and rekindling the vital connection between people and the environment where they live.

SUMMARY:Aerial Rescue Training Workshop
DESCRIPTION:When a tree worker is injured or incapacitated aloft\, typically fellow crew members are the first to respond.  An emergency could develop at any time\, and tree care professionals must know how to react. \n\n\n\nTCIA’s Aerial Rescue Training Program helps protect your workers and meet the aerial rescue training requirements mandated by ANSI Z133.1 and OSHA. \n\n\n\nThis certificate program is designed to be used in combination with on-the-job training and practice\, so that crews have the knowledge and skills needed to evaluate an emergency situation and potentially rescue an injured tree worker. \n\n\n\n Registration starts at 8:00am.  Class to begin at 8:30am and be completed by 3:30pm. \n\n\n\nInstructors: Eric Freesmeyer\, Gary Kohler \n\n\n\nCapacity: 30 Beginners/15 Advanced \n\n\n\n\nALL students will receive a workbook and a take home quiz if you have not already become certified through TCIA.\n\n\n\nALL students will be required to bring and wear proper PPE (hardhat and safety glasses). \n\n\n\nALL students should also bring climbing gear to take part in a wide range of rescue scenarios (not mandatory to take class). \n\n\n\nAll gear will need to pass inspection prior to use.\n\n\n\nFor beginner students there will be additional focus on ‘low and slow’. The advanced students will have the opportunity to work through more complicated scenarios at height. \n\n\n\nLawn chairs and water bottles are recommended.\n\n\n\n\nRegistration Deadline: April 28\, 2023\, 4:00pm \n\n\n\n6.5 ISA and TCIA CTSP CEUs available. \n\n\n\nOther Info: \n\n\n\n\nLunch will be provided.

SUMMARY:i-Tree for Funding Opportunities - May 2023
DESCRIPTION:What:\n\n\n\nUrban and Community Forestry is making headlines this spring. In April\, USDA’s Forest Service announced the availability of $1 billion to increase equitable access to trees and green spaces in urban and community forests where more than 84% of Americans live\, work\, and play. This is an enormous opportunity for communities large and small\, and i-Tree is here to help. We will hold two free\, one-hour workshops during the first week of May for an in-depth look at what i-Tree tools can offer. We will also host online office hours to answer i-Tree technical questions. Find a shareable/printable flyer with this information here. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow:\n\n\n\nPlease register here to participate. All are welcome. Sessions will be live streamed on Microsoft Teams. Both sessions will be recorded and posted below as well as on i-Tree’s YouTube channel. There are no requirements for this course. Participants are encouraged to submit session-related questions to info@itreetools.org . \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen:\n\n\n\n\nBenchmarking and Prioritizing Impacts – Wednesday\, May 3\, 1:00-2:00 pm ET This session will cover how to use i-Tree Canopy to identify what you have\, i-Tree Planting to examine impact metrics\, and i-Tree Landscape to prioritize your needs. Learn how to get estimates of tree canopy cover\, discover priority areas within your community\, and analyze the equity and distribution of canopy benefits.\n\n\n\nMonitoring\, Forecasting\, and Strategic Management – Friday\, May 5\, 1:00-2:00 pm ET This session will cover how to use i-Tree Eco to examine what you’ll need to move your goals forward. Learn how an i-Tree Eco inventory can help you better manage your urban forest to maximize trees’ benefits and ensure those benefits are delivered where they are most needed.\n\n\n\nOffice Hours – Monday\, May 8 and Wednesday\, May 10\, 1:00-2:00 pm ET Join us for an informal discussion during our “Office Hours” to get answers to frequently asked questions about our i-Tree tools.

SUMMARY:i-Tree for Funding Opportunities - May 2023
DESCRIPTION:What:\n\n\n\nUrban and Community Forestry is making headlines this spring. In April\, USDA’s Forest Service announced the availability of $1 billion to increase equitable access to trees and green spaces in urban and community forests where more than 84% of Americans live\, work\, and play. This is an enormous opportunity for communities large and small\, and i-Tree is here to help. We will hold two free\, one-hour workshops during the first week of May for an in-depth look at what i-Tree tools can offer. We will also host online office hours to answer i-Tree technical questions. Find a shareable/printable flyer with this information here. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow:\n\n\n\nPlease register here to participate. All are welcome. Sessions will be live streamed on Microsoft Teams.

Learn how to get estimates of tree canopy cover\, discover priority areas within your community\, and analyze the equity and distribution of canopy benefits.\n\n\n\nMonitoring\, Forecasting\, and Strategic Management – Friday\, May 5\, 1:00-2:00 pm ET This session will cover how to use i-Tree Eco to examine what you’ll need to move your goals forward.
