Trees
The City of Ottawa has planted 100,000 trees in the last 3 years as part of its Reforestation effort.
I would like a the following information on each tree lat, long, date planted, reason planted, tree type, age of tree when planted, picture of tree, current tree status.
I often worry that these trees are just replacement trees for dead trees in locations that will never properly grow trees.
Votes in favour: 66%
Degree of contention:

We will find out what kind of data exists for the reforestation project.

Access to this data could help other cities create a TREE program. As well, there may be folks interested in producing an app similar to the San Francisco Urban Forest.

You can map trees in OpenStreetMap not just the city owned ones. Such data would be helpful to the Ottawa Forester.

The Forestry Services division has done (and is probably still doing) an inventory of city trees. Any word on having those inventory data open?
