BR Public Tree Inventory

Using iTree, the U.S. Forest Service’s cloud-based, peer-reviewed platform, Baton Rouge Green staff is digitally cataloging public trees in the city in order to better quantify their environmental and economic benefits to our community, as well as assist city officials with maintenance and planning. As of July 2023, 70,996 trees have been measured and mapped!

Data from this inventory can be put to use in innumerable ways and has produced fascinating results.
