Project Narrative

* To develop a tree inventory in the Metropolitan Area of Monterrey though a randomize sampling process. There will be a field work for recollecting the tree information of the public areas, while there will be a satellite-image based methodology to estimate the trees located in private areas. * To use i-Tree Eco & i-Tree Canopy to estimate the actual environmental services provided by trees in the actual conditions. * To define the improvements expected from an aggressive tree planting effort, in an aggregate perspective, but also by specific locations. * To define the native species that should be focus on to achieve the expected improvements. * To define the number of trees to plant, and the spatial distribution to achieve the expected improvements.
