The Urban Forestry Footprint Mapping Project is the first Canadian initiative to quantify and map municipal urban forestry activities nationwide. It translates available information into accessible maps and graphs that make urban forestry work more visible across Canada.
The project highlights how municipalities manage, plan, and steward urban forests. It is intended to support practitioners, planners, researchers, stewardship groups, and anyone interested in the growth of urban forestry programs.
Both map versions are available here so visitors can explore change over time and compare urban forestry activities across municipalities.
