TREELOGY: Preserving Urban Forests through IoT Monitoring Data of Greenery

he aim of the paper is to explain the methodology and outcome of an R&D project involving designers, data scientists and botanists along com- mitted in the field of Nature Based Solutions, with the goal of creating new systems (Cabinets) to monitor the health and stability of urban forests. They offer opportunities and risks related to the stability and development in anthropic environments. Therefore, a new interdisciplinary approach to managing and monitoring this emerging problem is essential. The Treelo- gy project represents an important step forward in this field through IoT multisensory systems that collect data in a cloud, allowing targeted mitiga- tion and remediation choices to be made. Additive manufacturing methods are used to make monitoring system prototypes. It is therefore clear that the transdisciplinary approach of design, computer science and botany is essential for the development of new research processes aimed at solving complex problems.
