Technologies are cool and all, but is there a business case for monitoring and managing nature-based solutions?
Join Dr. Nadina Galle, Ambassador of the Smart Tech for NBS Community, and Dirk van Riel, CEO of TreeTracker, as they discuss the use of mobile mapping data and deep learning algorithms to automatically detect trees and "smarten up" urban tree maintenance, enabling the calculation of the ecological and economic value of trees. It's clear that many benefit, but who pays? The business case behind these solutions can often seem abstract. In this one-hour interactive webinar, Nadina and Dirk dive into the business model and lessons learned that have allowed TreeTracker to be deployed in 15+ municipalities in just 18 months.
