Advancing urban tree monitoring with AI-powered digital twins

MIT Assistant Professor Sara Beery contributed to the new Tree D-fusion system, which can generate a simulation-ready 3D model of a real tree from images such as those found on Google Street View. The system leverages a tree shape generated using species- and environment-specific data to create realistic, lifelike tree models.
