OpenTreeMap is open source software for collaborative, geography-enabled urban tree inventory. OpenTreeMap provides an easy-to-use public inventorying platform that enables individuals, organizations, and governments to collaboratively contribute to an interactive and dynamic map of a community’s tree population. OpenTreeMap is a project of Azavea and Urban Ecos.
