The USDA Forest Service Northeastern Area invites proposals to establish an online Urban Forest Health Information Center (UFORHIC). This platform will aggregate and analyze local tree inventory and pest detection data from communities, facilitating easy upload, multi-scale trend analysis, and information exchange with the National Plant Diagnostics Network. UFORHIC will provide vital insights for urban forest managers and agencies. Proposals must detail development, data housing, and maintenance costs through Spring 2011. The project also requires a secure user interface and web portal for data access and relevant urban forest health resources.
