Watch how a city planner uses Shadepoint to identify the streets falling short of 30% canopy, find the highest-footfall gaps, and produce a ranked list of planting sites — all in minutes.
Cities know they need more trees. The hard part is knowing where. Shadepoint combines sun exposure analysis, pedestrian movement data, and existing canopy coverage to pinpoint the locations that will deliver the biggest impact — for residents, for biodiversity, and for your climate goals.
A global benchmark for livable, green cities — and a practical target your city can track and act on.
Every resident should be able to see at least 3 trees from their window. Green views reduce stress, improve mental health, and make cities more livable.
At least 30% of every neighborhood should be covered by tree canopy. This is the threshold where cities start to see real cooling, flood mitigation, and air quality benefits.
Every resident should be within a 5-minute walk (300 meters) of a park or green space. Proximity to nature is directly linked to physical activity and community wellbeing.
Most cities don't know where their gaps are — let alone where a single new tree will close them fastest. Shadepoint maps your current canopy against the 3-30-300 benchmarks, then ranks planting locations by the impact they'll deliver: which spots reduce the most heat, which streets are most walked, which neighborhoods are furthest behind. Instead of planting where it's convenient, you plant where it counts.
