<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">The Centre for Smart Green Cities at Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia is leading a 5 year project aimed to measure the resilience of urban vegetation to climate change, drought and heatwaves (<a href="https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/4Jv4C3QNl1SmrngETDoNId?domain=whichplantwhere.com.au" target="_blank"><span style="color:purple">https://www.whichplantwhere.com.au/</span></a>).
The project is supported by Hort Innovation Australia and the NSW Government.</span><span lang="EN-AU"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">A module of our project aims to model realised and potential climatic niches of urban tree species by using bioclimatic models and urban tree inventory data from Australia and globally. As such, we are collating tree
inventories from cities worldwide to create and validate statistical models. This data will be exclusively used to feed our models and aggregated at 1 km<sup>2</sup> resolution. Data won't be circulated to any third party outside Macquarie University. </span><span lang="EN-AU"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU"> </span><span lang="EN-AU"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU">We would appreciate if you and Colleagues could share tree inventories of your city, town, etc., particularly if these are not already published in an open data format online. At this stage, we only need the geographical
coordinates of stems and species information in a GIS format (e.g., shapefile). Even partial inventories are useful to us, as data will be aggregated anyway.</span><span lang="EN-AU"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
