Frequently Asked
Questions

The application visualizes the urban tree population and the specific water requirements of the trees. This allows the dedicated watering community to see at a glance which trees need how much water and to enter their watering directly. This simplifies the coordination of watering within the neighborhood as well as with the administration.
