It is a common sight to see trees falling in Bengaluru whenever it pours. A private initiative is currently underway to take a census of trees in the city and identity those vulnerable to toppling in heavy rain. Project Vruksha has so far mapped the trees in Pattabhinagar, Byrasandra, and Jayanagr east. The team members have pinned down the GPS location of each tree on Google map noting its species, age and health.
