Dublin City Council, IE "Dublin Tree Map" citizen engagement
Dublin City Council launched a citizen-science engagement initiative to map the trees throughout the region. The project was developed in collaboration with the University College Dublin and Mapping Green Dublin. The "Dublin Tree Map" project is designed to identify areas with a deficit of trees, catalog the diversity of tree species, and evaluate potential threats due to plant diseases and climate change. The information will be recorded in the Curio app and made available to the public.
