    Please provide available tree data for the period 2015 to the current date.
    If the dataset is too large or would exceed the appropriate cost/time limits under Section 12 of the FOI Act, please provide a manageable subset of the data.  I will calculate proportionality from this subset.
    • Would you either:
      • Provide a link to a publicly accessible and downloadable portal, or

    • For each tree, I would be grateful if the following attributes could be included where available:

      • Height
      • Diameter at breast height (DBH)

    • Where a tree has been surveyed on multiple occasions, please include all recorded entries (for example, Tree 1 may have data spanning 2015–2024, Tree 2 may only have data for 2023–2024).
  1. Format and Clarification
