Tree Monitoring Apps

Tracking trees is Tikouto's specialty. And he’s great at his job because he’s constantly learning the latest tree tracking app that will help him follow the lifespan of our seedlings. Up until now, other companies have sometimes supported the trees we plant and track. But currently, we’re working on a platform exclusively owned by The Haiti Tree Project where donors can sponsor Haitian farmers. Having dedicated sponsors will increase tree survival through the first dry season, and the app will allow the sponsors to watch the trees grow!

Stay tuned!

Tree Tracking

One of our principal jobs is checking up on the trees people take home. This week Tikouto, our tree tracker, visited several farmers, took photos of their new avocado and Breadnut trees, and uploaded the trees to the Greenstand Map.

We now have a Haitian agronomist in Greenstand identifying all the trees and taking statistics on survival. The most important part of reforestation is knowing when and why a tree dies. Greenstands data gives that information.
