So instead of studies they should just, what, have someone walk the entire city to identify these spots?

- doctorhandshake 3y agoThat’s not remotely as crazy as you make it sound. This sort of census is used to count all sorts of things. In the case of NYC street trees, it’s been done three times before: https://www.nycgovparks.org/trees/treescount https://www.nycgovparks.org/trees/treescount

- lazyasciiart 3y agoThe tree census is not “someone walking around identifying trees”, it is a study. It takes a ton of organization, methodology, data collection and management. It’s an excellent example of why you need an actual study even to collect obvious data like “that’s a tree!”
