The i-Tree suite of software tools allows for urban forest analysis and assessment of the benefits of urban trees at all scales--from a single tree to an entire region. The results can be used improve management, advocate for better public policy, and make design decisions. It is collaboration of the US Forest Service and the Davey Institute. Urban Ecos has provided a number of contributions to i-Tree including:

• Development of the i-Tree manuals, outlining how to carry out i-Tree projects and use the software
• Training sessions in how to conduct i-Tree projects
• Software testing and improvement
• Use of i-Tree to conduct urban and campus forest analyses
