> 1) what is the source of tree data--- from an open source app that allows users to capture images of trees
>
what is the license of this data?
how old is the oldest data you want to use? (say, tree recorded X years ago)

> 2) can you give samples of tree data that would be added?-- an example would be trees that are around my residential house, healthy trees

I am not looking for description of data, but some representative sample of actual data
and how it matches reality (for example is it offset from actual tree positions)

> 3) where it would be added-- for now, mainly the US area
> 4) how you will prevent duplication with existing trees-- code makes sure that no two trees at the same GPS can be added
>
what if there is another tree close to it? Maybe the same offset by 10cm?
What if there is a tree row nearby?

> 5) which tags will be used-- species, genus, maybe height, image of tree, maybe wikipedia tree about species, tree type (broadleaf versus not)
> 6) have you verified quality of data you want to add-- In terms of verify, we make sure it is a healthy tree that has not already been added
>
how accurate is tree location?

>>> Hello! Hope everything is well. I am trying to add trees to OSM in an automated way via python. Of course, these are real trees that I do not want to add manually. I am planning to run the script every 30 minutes to process about 100 trees at a time, creating 7 changests for every run/30 min interval. Hence, every 30 minutes 7 changesets will be created, each having about 14 trees/nodes. These trees will be relatively close around a central GPS point. The comment would be similar to "Adding 14 trees all clustered around X GPS coordinate." Does the community have any concern or suggestions for this? Thank you, and I look forward to hearing from you all soon.
