FAQ

Yes. There are procedures for importing digitized data in both Excel and Shapefile formats into the existing GreenSpaces database. For successful data entry, Excel files must contain a specific set of fields. Some of these are mandatory and must contain data (e.g. area, facility number, geographic coordinates). Others are optional (e.g. classification, tree diameter and height).
To load the inventory of a green area you can import a Shapefile. Shapefile is a GIS format that contains both geometric data (polygons, lines or points) and the corresponding attributes and can be created or modified with different types of GIS software. To import these files, they must conform to the technical specifications of GreenSpaces.
Support is only a quick email away (at greenspaces@urbangreen.gr). The UrbanGreen team will contact the client to discuss problems and find solutions. Service contracts also provide for maintenance work.
GreenSpaces includes an app for Android devices (and soon for IOS software) which allows collection of data in the field. New trees can be recorded, including the tree's Visual Stability Assessment, playground equipment can be entered and documented, issues can be recorded, jobs reviewed and closed, and much more - all in offline mode. The GreenSpaces app works smoothly in areas of poor or no connectivity, and updates can be synced once the user is back within Internet coverage.
Yes, simply connect an external GPS device to your Tablet or Smartphone via Bluetooth and positioning accuracy will be improved on aerial imagery (imagery also displayed in offline mode, if need be).
A demo of GreenSpaces is available online. To access the demo, please send us a request to greenspaces@urbangreen.gr with your details. A member of UrbanGreen team will be in touch with you to guide you through the functionality of the software and give you temporary access to the demo for a short period of time.
Data can be exported from GreenSpaces in various formats, depending on the data type. Area/site lists and lists of work orders can be downloaded in Excel file format. Inventories of trees, play areas and surfaces, tree lists and their stability assessments, lists of recreational objects and related inspections, can be downloaded both in Excel file and Shapefile formats. Reports on all this information can also be printed in PDF format.
DXF files cannot be imported directly. You must first convert them into Shapefile format in accordance with the specifications and then import them. There are several programs that allow you to convert them, some of which are Open Source.
GreenSpaces has a function that allows you to calculate statistics on all assets or on specific locations. GreenSpaces records all the changes on the database and can then make comparisons between two different dates. Results of statistics can be exported in Excel Tables.
