About

The 25 Million Trees Initiative Tree Tracker Dashboard is an ArcGIS Dashboard developed to provide transparency on the progress of the 25 Million Trees Initiative announced by Governor Hochul in 2024 State of the State Address. The dashboard features an interactive map displaying various planting locations, complemented by a progress gauge that visually represents overall planting progress. Users can easily track the total number of plantings undertaken. Moreover, the dashboard allows for data filtering by specific time periods, enabling users to analyze trends and performance over time effectively.
