Overview
The seminar will feature Milutin Milenković, a research scholar at the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA), who will explain how Tree-Quest can help address gaps in urban tree inventories. The free application enables citizens to collect information on individual trees, including their height, diameter and species, generating ground-based observations that can support research into tree biomass and carbon storage. The seminar is open to students and the general public, with limited places available. Registration closes on 16 November 2026. Interested participants can find further information and registration details through the official IIASA event page.
