i-Tree / Tree signs

i-Tree is a tool to make the value of trees visible

To analyze the contribution of trees to the environment and society, you can use i-Tree, a collection of free tools that calculate the benefits of trees in terms of ecosystem services. These services benefit humans in many ways. Trees store carbon dioxide, clean the air of particles and reduce noise. They also help reduce the need for heating and cooling in buildings, and improve stormwater management in urban environments.

Tools for you

We have developed a number of templates and examples - in Excel, fillable PDFs and other formats, which you can download free of charge. These will help you document, analyze and present your work with i-Tree in a structured way.
