Abstract
Street Trees: A Model, Process, and Architecture for Inventory and Maintenance of This Critical Urban Resource
Track: Application Development
Author(s): Peter Godfrey
The efficient management of street tree resources within an urban setting can impact fiscal expenditures, economic development, and overall resident quality of life. As one of the most visible resources within an urban setting, these resources are truly part of the urban infrastructure fabric, and proper management is critical. This paper will discuss the definition of a street tree and suggested data model, review typical business and data flow processes that encompass street tree systems, describe real-world examples of inventory creation (including GPS, voice recognition data gathering, and pen-based field data collection), and make suggestions for system design and implementation.
