Mangaluru: Geotagging nearly 600 puppies planted in Golithattu elementary schools higher by the government near Nelyapi last month, finished on Friday.
This is part of the study to compare normal forests with Miyawaki forests, or increasingly popular urban forests throughout India.
Geographical tagging, also known as geography, is the process of adding geographical identification data.
This data consists of latitude and longitude coordinates.
The coordinates can then be used to identify geographical trees, and monitor them via satellite.
Durga Singh, an employee of Mescom, has initiated the development of Miyawaki forests in schools in rural areas.
Of the four projects taken by it, this year he has completed two projects at the higher elementary school GolithTtu near Nelyapi and the Alanthaya government school in Putture.
Durga Singh extended the cost of biotechnology of Smitha Hegde, and he was with his team, Geotag 570 trees in six hours.
Smitha Hegde told Tii, “We already have two Miyawaki test sites marked near Kottara and Mangaladevi, and two regular forests developed in the crematorium in Pachanady and Ullal.
Because these sites are in urban areas, when Durga Singh approaches us , We decided to take geotagging along with normal forests, so we have a comparison of urban and rural areas.
“” The aim to see whether the Miyawaki forest really grows faster and in accordance with Indian conditions.
Because they are planted so close, I am interested in understanding Their synergy and trees-to-tree talks, how different species behave when they are together or separate.
Maybe, in the future, if someone wants to develop Miyawaki forests, we can give them data about the species that grow well.
We try to produce some data, and find out if it really works and if it works, What’s the right combination for that, “he said.
At present, it has more than 3,000 trees.
“I want to see a comparison for a period of 10 years,” added Smitha.
