IM-Tree: Towards an information model for an integrated tree register
Frans I. Rip, J.D. Bulens · Socio-Environmental Systems Modeling · 2013
This paper gives an overview of the first steps towards a tree information model against the background of the situation in the Netherlands.Fragmented ownership and incomplete data are an obstacle for effective tree management and for quantitative evaluation.The greening ambition of Europe's Common Agricultural Policy also requires tools and datasets to check claims to subsidize small landscape elements.Tools referred to are a tree crown perimeter dataset and a method to derive a 3D model from that perimeter.
