Crown width impacts ecosystem benefits delivered by urban trees as calculated in i-Tree Eco. We used additional field measurements to update the urban crown width models to have comparable accuracy to field measurements of crown width.
Learning Objectives:
Upon completion, participant will be able to define how much of an improvement the updated crown width models are in comparison to the variability of field measurements.
Upon completion, participant will be able to describe the potential impacts of updated crown width models on ecosystem service estimates.
