All of it: the words, the place, the proof
Record each street tree's species, trunk diameter, and crown condition in South Los Angeles using the i-Tree Eco protocol. South LA is real, documented, canopy-poor ground: while a handful of affluent LA neighborhoods host a disproportionate share of the city's tree canopy, South LA's own council districts average well under the citywide rate, so an accurate inventory here feeds the exact planting and budget decisions the canopy-equity gap needs.
Fund it for $130. Proof lands onchain when it's done.
How this work is done
How this work is done
A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.
Bring
- A DBH tape or diameter tape (reads diameter directly when wrapped around the trunk)
- A tree/plant-ID reference or app for species identification
- A smartphone with GPS/location services, or a paper form with a site map, for per-tree location
- The current i-Tree Eco field data form or app (itreetools.org) to enter or export records
Steps
- 1. Confirm i-Tree Eco (not the legacy i-Tree Streets tool) is the current version being used; download the current field data form or use the app before starting.
- 2. Identify the species of each tree in the inventory area; if uncertain, photograph it and flag the record for expert ID rather than guessing.
- 3. Measure DBH (diameter at breast height) with the tape at the standard 4.5 ft (1.37 m) height on the uphill side of any sloped ground, recorded to the nearest tenth of an inch or centimeter.
- 4. Estimate and record Crown Light Exposure (CLE) on the 0-5 scale — the number of sides (of five possible: top plus four compass-ish sides) receiving direct light — using the i-Tree Eco field guidance; if genuinely unsure, leave it for the software's own default rather than guessing a precise number.
- 5. Record the crown-dieback condition band (e.g. Fair 10-25% dieback, Poor 25-50% dieback, Dead 100%) as a visual estimate — never a climbed or instrumented measurement.
- 6. Record the tree's location (GPS point or address + position) and land-use context (street tree, park, yard, etc.).
- 7. While measuring, watch for any structural risk sign (crack, cavity, hanging limb, sudden lean, conks); if seen, note it and route that specific tree to the separate ISA Level-1 visual health-check packet and an ISA Certified Arborist — do not attempt to assess or rate the risk here.
- 8. Enter or export the completed per-tree dataset in i-Tree Eco-compatible form, noting the total trees inventoried and any tree skipped as inaccessible or refused.
What counts as done
- Species identified (or flagged uncertain and routed for expert ID) and DBH measured at the standard 4.5 ft (1.37 m) breast height with a diameter or DBH tape, recorded per tree
- Crown Light Exposure (CLE, 0-5 scale) and crown-dieback condition band (e.g. Fair 10-25%, Poor 25-50%, Dead 100%) recorded per the i-Tree Eco field protocol
- Each tree's location recorded (GPS point or address + side/position) and land-use context noted (street, park, yard, etc.)
- The completed dataset entered or exported in i-Tree Eco-compatible form, with the total trees inventoried and any refused/inaccessible trees noted
Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
What is promised, and what is not
Three separate acts, never one: a vote is a free signed preference that moves no money; a pledge is free signed backing intent, balance-checked, that moves no money and never marks the packet funded; funding is a real payment that backs the wage. Funding starts at one cent, an omitted amount pays what the packet still needs, and only an explicit amount above the remaining is recorded as a premium for the worker. Money settles only on accepted proof. An agent can fund it in one x402 call: POST /nurture/fund {"workId":"WORK_1790264056641_gpeqk6w","funderWallet":"0xYOU"}.
Claiming is free. You sign to prove the wallet is yours: no card, no deposit, no fee. Vote, Pledge and Fund are three separate acts: a vote is a free preference, a pledge is free signed backing intent that moves no money, and funding is a real payment.
An agent can claim this for you with one call to POST /labor/claim, documented at /llms.txt.
Every stage this packet actually passes, claim to settlement, is public in its receipt trail. A stage that has not happened is not claimed.
Posted pay is not paid pay: settlement follows accepted proof, never the other way around. Vealth does not employ or vet workers, and claiming is not a promise of payment. See how proof and receipts work.
Other acts: vote, pledge, fund
