​Urban Tree Canopy Assessment Update

This contract concerns an update to the City of Ann Arbor’s urban tree canopy assessment – a GIS‑based analysis of tree coverage, health, and related metrics across the municipal area. The solicitation invited firms with expertise in environmental consulting, GIS mapping, and tree‑canopy inventory to submit technical proposals. Four firms responded, and the city has tentatively awarded the contract to Plan IT Geo. The work will likely involve field data collection, remote‑sensing analysis, GIS database updates, and a final report with recommendations for future urban forestry planning. • Scope: GIS mapping, tree inventory, data analysis, and reporting for urban forest health. • Awarded Vendor: Plan IT Geo (tentative). • Agency: City of Ann Arbor Purchasing, located at 301 E. Huron St., Ann Arbor, MI.
