i-Tree Canopy
A change in USDA Forest Service policy has created an immediate funding lapse for i-Tree. Functionality, maintenance,
and support for all i-Tree tools will be impacted by this loss of funding. (Learn More)
Welcome to i-Tree Canopy!
Use this tool to classify land and tree cover across a given area using random sampling of aerial imagery. See tree canopy benefits in terms of carbon dioxide, air pollution, and stormwater impacts.
How to use it:
- Select from existing geographic boundaries, draw your own project area boundaries onto Google Maps, or load an ESRI shapefile.
- You can use multiple, non-overlapping boundaries at the same time.
- i-Tree Canopy randomly generates sample points and zooms to each one so you can choose from your pre-defined list of cover types for that spot.
- With i-Tree Canopy, you review Google Maps aerial photography at random points to conduct a cover assessment within a defined project area.
- 500-1000 survey points are suggested; the more points you complete, the better your cover estimate for your study area.
- If estimating tree cover, tree benefits can also be estimated.
