What is the TreeMapper.App and how does it work?

The TreeMapper is a smartphone application for monitoring trees, which is aimed at planting and restoration organizations worldwide. With the app, they can easily document their tree plantings by storing geo-data, the time of planting and also the tree species planted. The TreeMapper.App has been in use since July 2021 after two years of development https://www1.plant-for-the-planet.org/yucatan. The app was not developed by a large software company, but by our in-house IT team.

The app is also exciting from a donor’s point of view: even if the donated trees are thousands of kilometers away: Not only do the donors receive an electronic message about the location and time of planting, but they can also watch their trees grow from the comfort of their sofa, because the growth of the trees is documented at regular intervals and can be viewed via the app.
