About the Project

The Urban Forestry Images Project links the Design Center's Image Bank collection with other images collections on the world wide web. The Image Bank was one of the first collections to systematically catalog a large collection of land use and urban design images. This project features images related to urban forestry where the urban forest is defined as vegetation growing in urban areas. From nature parks to container plants, this vegetation is important for people and nature.

This web site features several components:

  • Online slide shows featuring some of the best of the Design Center's images and reflecting topics in high demand.
  • Links to other image collections.
  • Links to the Design Center's own Image Bank.
The online slide shows reflect a survey of experts in a range of fields related to urban forestry including planning, landscape architecture, forestry, and parks and recreation.
