When Dave Nowak of the U.S. Forest Service and Scott Maco of Davey Tree Expert Company began collaborating on the creation of a suite of urban forest analysis tools called i-Tree, they imagined that users would be mostly city foresters from the United States.

iTree is a great tool for demonstrating the positive impact of a single tree or an urban canopy to the client. using the stormwater function and then our local 'loads' of nitrogen and phosphorus in that stormwater runoff (courtesy VA DCR), you can actually calculate the nitrogen and phosphorus removed by a tree now---at its current caliper size---and in future. All those tiny reductions in n and p really add up to a big cleanup of our children's streams, rivers and Bay.
