MANAGEMENT OF URBAN TREES THROUGH THE INTEGRATION OF VARIOUS CUTTING-EDGE TECHNOLOGIES
iArBox
Project
iArbox is an ambitious project aimed at revolutionizing the management of urban trees through the use of cutting-edge technologies.
iArbox contributes to maintaining urban biodiversity and climate resilience, aligning with the goals of the National Biodiversity Future Center and the four MCRV pillars (Monitoring, Care, Response, Evaluation), offering a replicable model for the sustainable management of urban green spaces.
Mission
The main goal of the iArbox project is to preserve and promote the health of ancient urban trees, thereby contributing to the conservation of urban biodiversity, the improvement of air and environmental quality, and the enhancement of ecosystem services.
The innovative approach of iArbox is based on the integration of various technologies, including:
- Artificial Intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT)
- Remote sensing techniques, to create a continuous and dynamic tree monitoring system
This system makes it possible to collect real-time data on tree health, monitoring key parameters such as:
- Stability
- Growth
- Phytosanitary condition
Through the analysis of this data, iArbox is able to identify early any tree problems or stress and provide support for targeted interventions.
Furthermore, the project aims to actively carry out interventions, treatments, and best management practices in order to test and implement the monitoring system and assess the trees’ response. In the long term, iArbox seeks to become a replicable model for the sustainable management of urban trees worldwide, thus contributing to the creation of greener, more resilient, and livable cities for future generations.
