ArcGIS Online tools allow landscaping staff at the University of Utah to collect and maintain detailed information for over 12,000 trees. Basic attributes are collected and stored, as well as real-time information about maintenance needs, treatments applied, and general health and condition. These tools allow this information to be easily accessed and shared with others, and avoid the need to fill out and store previously handwritten records.
