| Crocker says that the new urban forest application is open source. "Any
| city that wants to manage its urban forest can download it and load it
| up," he says. "It's just a matter of managing the data. If you
| understand databases, all you have to do is make sure the mapping
| fields are consistent. The cool thing is that as this thing rolls
| out, more cities will start to use it and we're going to see that
| great feedback. FUF and BUF will start seeing bug fixes and code
| improvements."
