Interactive Maps (2018)
The first Urban Forestry Footprint Map (Version 1.0) was created in 2018 with support from Tree Canada and Mitacs. The project was led by Dr. Danijela Puric-Mladenovic in collaboration with Dr. Adrina C. Bardekjian.
Collected information on urban forestry and related stewardship, policy, and management activities was spatially integrated into an interactive map. The map is accompanied by graphs and summaries to help users compare municipalities and explore urban forestry activities across Canada.
