how to connect historical google earth to itree canopy

Post by YXZ225 » Tue Mar 28, 2017 9:22 am

Hello, Please help

Is it possible to look at older aerial photography in iTree canopy?
We can see old aerial photography in Google Earth, but are not sure how to use this in iTree canopy.
I am interested in the historical development of green infrastructure and green spaces.
is there any way to convert the historical google earth image to itree canopy tool please?
many thanks

Hello,
You can definitely connect i-Tree Canopy data to the historical data in Google Earth. This is facilitated within the software application by using the "Historical Change Detection" method. For more information please check out these videos,
-Canopy Change Analysis Intro part 1 (http://www.itreetools.org/resources/vid ... Change.mp4)- 4 min. (.mp4) - This video discusses how to use an existing i-Tree Canopy survey with Google Earth historical images to analyze canopy cover change over time.
-Canopy Change Analysis with Google Earth part 2 (http://www.itreetools.org/resources/vid ... _part2.mp4 - 4 min. (.mp4)- This video demonstrates a change analysis survey using Canopy in conjunction with Google Earth historical images.

These and other videos can always be found on our Video Learning page, http://www.itreetools.org/resources/videos.php
