Sophie Nitoslawski is passionate about finding ways to better integrate trees and green infrastructure into the fabric of our cities. Her research centers on the intersection of smart communities and urban forest management, and she works with both private- and public-sector partners to pilot digital-based monitoring and management systems for urban ecosystems. In addition to her Ph.D. work, Sophie is involved in teaching various urban forestry and sustainability courses at University of British Columbia (UBC) and is currently a member of the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) Science and Research Committee.--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/plantatrilliontrees/messageSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/plantatrilliontrees/support

Episode 89 - Sophie Nitoslawski is passionate about finding ways to better integrate trees and green infrastructure into the fabric of our cities.

This week's episode explores the promises of improved stewardship of the urban canopy using cutting edge technology. I was joined by Nadina Galle, PhD candidate in Ecological Engineering and CEO &amp; Co-Founder of Green City Watch, a geospatial AI firm and Sophie Nitoslawski PhD student at UBC and Research Director at the Internet of Nature. Nadina &amp; Sophie's Internet of Nature startup seeks to overcome the urban fragmentation of mycorrhizal networks which have kept trees healthy and connected for millions of years. Their Internet of Nature start-up is a multi-city venture which incubates and deploys a network of sensors, algorithms and other tech tools to bridge the gap between increasing smart infrastructure and the need for increasingly robust green infrastructure. Extending and deepening the conversation I had with Cecil Konijnendijk, Nadina &amp; Sophie covered:Why cities are so stressful for treesThe role of emerging technology in improving tree health, and the aims of The Internet of NatureWhy the value of trees goes UP over timeWhy experts should be leading on tree planting drives, and what can go wrong when they aren'tImproving data sets: the pressing need for tree inventoriesWhy mid-size cities are often better innovatorsHow climate change is impacting city tree strategiesTheir diverse work is housed at the new website - www.theinternetofnature.comNadina's TedTalk can be seen here Nadina and Sophie will be presenting a keynote presentation at the 4th Trees, People &amp; The Built Environment conference (Birmingham, UK) - tickets available here Twitter@sophienito@earthtonadineLINKS to show mentions@hopejahren - Author of Lab Girl@awitnesstreeThe Outdoor Citizen - John JudgeThe Second Machine Age - Erik Brynjolfsson &amp; Andrew McAfee See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
