I-US Forest Service kanye nozakwethu bakhiphe namhlanje ekuseni inguqulo yabo yamahhala i-Tree software suite, eklanyelwe ukulinganisa izinzuzo zezihlahla nokusiza imiphakathi ekutholeni ukwesekwa nokuxhaswa ngezimali kwezihlahla emapaki, emagcekeni esikole nasezindaweni ezingomakhelwane.
i-Isihlahla v.4, okwenziwa kwaba nokwenzeka ngokubambisana komphakathi nezizimele, inikeza abahleli bezindawo zasemadolobheni, abaphathi bamahlathi, abagqugquzeli bezemvelo nabafundi iyithuluzi lamahhala lokukala ukubaluleka kwemvelo nezomnotho kwezihlahla ezindaweni zabo nasemadolobheni. Isevisi Yehlathi kanye nabalingani bayo bazohlinzeka ngosekelo lwamahhala futhi olufinyeleleka kalula lobuchwepheshe lwe-i-Tree suite.
“Izihlahla zasemadolobheni ziyizihlahla ezisebenza kanzima eMelika,” kusho iNhloko Yenkonzo Yamahlathi uTom Tidwell. “Izimpande zezihlahla zasemadolobheni zigandaywe ngamatshe, futhi zihlaselwa ukungcola nokukhipha umoya, kodwa ziyaqhubeka zisisebenzela.”
I-i-Tree suite yamathuluzi isize imiphakathi ukuthi ithole uxhaso lwezimali zokuphatha amahlathi asemadolobheni kanye nezinhlelo ngokulinganisa inani lezihlahla zabo kanye nezinsiza zemvelo ezihlinzekwa yizihlahla.
Olunye ucwaningo lwakamuva lwe-i-Tree luthole ukuthi izihlahla zasemgwaqweni eMinneapolis zinikeze amaRandi ayizigidi ezingama-25 ezinzuzweni ezisukela ekongeni amandla kuye kwanda amanani ezakhiwo. Abahleli basemadolobheni e-Chattanooga, e-Tenn., bakwazile ukukhombisa ukuthi ngedola ngalinye elitshalwe emahlathini abo asemadolobheni, idolobha lathola izinzuzo zama-dollar angu-12.18. I-New York City yasebenzisa i-i-Tree ukuze ithethelele u-$220 million wokutshala izihlahla phakathi neminyaka eyishumi ezayo.
“Ucwaningo Lwenkonzo Yamahlathi kanye nezibonelo zezinzuzo zezihlahla zasemadolobheni manje sekusezandleni zabantu abangenza umehluko emiphakathini yethu,” kusho uPaul Ries, umqondisi we-Cooperative Forestry for the Forest Service. “Umsebenzi wabacwaningi Benkonzo Yehlathi, abahamba phambili emhlabeni, awugcini nje ngokuhlala eshalofini, kodwa manje ususetshenziswa kabanzi emiphakathini yawo wonke amasayizi, emhlabeni wonke, ukuze usize abantu baqonde futhi basebenzise izinzuzo zezihlahla emiphakathini yabo.”
Kusukela ekukhululweni kokuqala kwamathuluzi e-i-Tree ngo-Agasti 2006, imiphakathi engaphezu kwe-100, izinhlangano ezingenzi nzuzo, abaxhumanisi nezikole basebenzise i-i-Tree ukubika ngezihlahla ngazinye, amaphasela, izindawo ezingomakhelwane, amadolobha, kanye nezifunda zonke.
“Ngiyaziqhenya ngokuba yingxenye yephrojekthi eyenza okuhle kakhulu emiphakathini yethu,” kusho uDave Nowak, umcwaningi oholayo we-i-Tree we-Forest Service. Northern Research Station. "I-i-Tree izothuthukisa ukuqonda kangcono ukubaluleka kwendawo eluhlaza emadolobheni ethu nasezindaweni ezizungezile, okubaluleke kakhulu emhlabeni lapho intuthuko kanye noshintsho lwezemvelo kuyizinto ezingokoqobo."
Intuthuko ebaluleke kakhulu ku-i-Tree v.4:
- I-i-Tree izofinyelela izethameli eziningi ekufundiseni abantu ngokubaluleka kwezihlahla. I-i-Tree Design yakhelwe ukuthi isetshenziswe kalula ngabanikazi bezindlu, izikhungo zengadi, nasemakilasini ezikole. Abantu bangasebenzisa i-i-Tree Design kanye nesixhumanisi sayo ku-Google amamephu ukuze babone umthelela wezihlahla egcekeni labo, endaweni nasemakilasini abo, nokuthi yiziphi izinzuzo abangazibona ngokungeza izihlahla ezintsha. I-i-Tree Canopy kanye ne-VUE nezixhumanisi zabo ku-Google Maps manje yenza kube lula kakhulu futhi kungabizi kakhulu emiphakathini nakubaphathi ukuhlaziya izinga namagugu e-canopy yabo yezihlahla, ihlaziya ukuthi kuze kube manje ibibiza kakhulu emiphakathini eminingi.
- I-i-Tree izophinde yandise izethameli zayo kwabanye ochwepheshe bokuphatha izinsiza. I-i-Tree Hydro inikeza ithuluzi eliyinkimbinkimbi kakhulu lochwepheshe abathintekayo emanzini emvula kanye nekhwalithi yamanzi kanye nokulawulwa komthamo. I-Hydro iyithuluzi elingasetshenziswa ngokushesha ukuze lisize imiphakathi ihlole futhi ibhekane nomthelela wamahlathi ayo asemadolobheni ekugelezeni kwemifula kanye nekhwalithi yamanzi engaba usizo ekuhlangabezaneni nemithetho nezindinganiso zamanzi ahlanzekile kazwelonke kanye nekazwelonke (EPA).
- Ngokukhishwa okusha ngakunye kwe-i-Tree, amathuluzi aba lula ukuwasebenzisa futhi afaneleke kakhulu kubasebenzisi. Abathuthukisi be-i-Tree baqhubeka bebhekana nempendulo evela kubasebenzisi futhi balungisa futhi bathuthukisa amathuluzi ukuze kube lula ukusetshenziselwa izethameli ezibanzi kakhulu. Lokhu kuzosiza kuphela ukwandisa ukusetshenziswa nomthelela hhayi e-United States kuphela kodwa emhlabeni jikelele.
