DESCRIPTION

Use UptoPlay to play online the game Virginia Tech Tree ID.

Virginia Tech Tree Identification brings the award winning Virginia Tech digital dendrology material to your Android smart phone. It contains fact sheets for over 1000 woody plants from all over North America with an in-depth description, range map and thousands of color images of leaves, flowers, fruit, twigs, bark and form.
Users can narrow the species list for any location in North America using the phone's GPS, network signal or any entered address or zip code. Basically the application can become Woody Plants of Where You Are Standing. For example, it can become the Woody Plants of Southwestern Oregon , the Woody Plants of Central Park or the or The Woody Plants of 37.108 lat., -80.452 long., elevation 2118.
Users can further narrow the species list by answering a series of very simple tree attribute questions such as where the plant is growing, leaf shape, leaf arrangement, flower color or fruit type.
The species list can also be narrowed by typing a keyword such as oak, Abies, red or palm. For example if oak is typed only oaks found in the defined area will be listed.
A feature also allows you to send any tree related question to Dr. Dendro, a tree expert in the Department of Forest Resources and Environmental Conservation at Virginia Tech. You can send a tree description or pictures of your plant and experts will help with identification.

Took over an hour to play online option one and if you open any other app or anything it starts over... I get highspeed internet... at first I thought it was their servers then I noticed that without using any internet it artificially slows itself down with loading its own filed that it has already downloaded...

I have *really* liked this app and have used it for years. I'd give 9 starts out of 5, except: 1) you can't zoom in on the photos--they're good but you can't access any detail (earlier versions, at least for iPhone, permitted this); and 2) I hate that they've made the photos the default view--this app is about information, not about pretty pictures. The current system is clunky and really gets in the way of the information.

`I've been using this app as my go-to tree ID tool for about 5 years now and I absolutely love it! I've used it in the field, on casual strolls, and even hanging out with friends. I live in the northeastern US and have found this app to cover nearly all of the native and naturalized species found throughout New England. So don't let the "Virginia Tech" affiliation turn you away from giving this app a try if you're not actually *in* Virginia. ☺️
