Through the Mein Baum App, users actively contribute by registering the trees they care about and tracking their health. They can share their observations with other tree enthusiasts, discover trees in their surroundings, and join collective efforts to protect urban trees. This citizen science approach fosters a community of tree lovers who gather valuable data to help protect and preserve urban trees, which often struggle to survive amidst concrete, asphalt, and the effects of the climate crisis.
The data collected through the Mein Baum App will help create a detailed map of trees in urban areas, especially in places like Bavarian cities. By understanding where trees are located, what types they are, and their condition, the Mein Baum App aids in organizing efforts to care for trees and prevent unnecessary tree felling. With the support of a growing community, Mein Baum will help improve the care and protection of trees, ensuring they continue to thrive as essential parts of urban biodiversity and help raise awareness about the importance of preserving them.
