Tree Taishi is a citizen-science platform that empowers communities to map urban trees, track tree health, and learn their climate value. It blends mobile-first design, AI-assisted insights, and privacy-respecting data to accelerate greener, more resilient cities.
Scan a QR tag, register a tree, and watch the city’s canopy come alive on a shared map.
Tree Taishi (“Ambassador Tree”) is a research-driven, community platform to register and monitor urban trees. The project explores digital MRV (monitoring, reporting, verification), app-based engagement, and on-the-ground stewardship to help cities grow healthy, climate-resilient canopies.
Built for mobile. Designed for community. Informed by research.
Fast onboarding, clean inputs, and simple flows to log trees anywhere.
Optional QR tags bind a physical tree to its digital profile.
Consistent fields and timestamps for learning and future analytics.
Neighborhood challenges and school drives to expand urban canopy.
Simple guidance on species care, watering, and risk signs.
Upcoming: richer health indicators, stewardship badges, and open data exports.
A simple loop of register → observe → learn → care.
Add a tree with location, photo, and basic attributes. Each entry is time-stamped to support responsible use later on.
Update observations—new growth, pruning, or risks like pests and heat stress. Build continuity over time.
See simplified climate value, care tips, and neighborhood activity. Join drives to plant and maintain trees.
Research-led, community-oriented, funded by, and proudly based at Sasin School of Management, Chulalongkorn University.
