Track: Parks and Natural Reserves
Author(s): Nikola Samardzija

The city of Zagreb has the spatial data warehousing of greenery among which significant place belongs to trees. There are 150 000 trees on the public land in Zagreb. Using the spatial data warehousing we established the area of 5 m from the tram line and singled out 1368 trees.

These trees have special growth conditions, similar to tree alleys, and are subjected to regular pruning. Various tree species tolerate differently regular pruning. Trees which do not tolerate regular pruning experience stress and will in time weaken and wither.

Our goal was to establish how many differrent species and trees are there, how are they allocated and how numerous are trees regarding the size of tree girth of particular species and altogether.

According to the received data we can expertly decide about the replacement of planted species with more suitable ones. In this way we can improve functional and visual quality of tree alleys.
