eTrees of Southern Africa

Taken from Braam Van Wyk and Piet Van Wyk's Trees of Southern Africa

eTrees of Southern Africa covers over 800 of the more common and accessible trees found in the region

The electronic field guide has been designed for the non-specialist and features an intuitive smart search for easily identifying trees based on your location and/or leaf shape

It features over 1700 full colour photographs, so that each tree has at least 1 picture, distribution map and text.

As with most of our other field guides eTrees features a log to record sightings of trees.

Features:

• Provides an easy-to-use interface and fast searches
• Search by Common Name or Scientific Name
• The 1st step of the Smart Search allows you to only view trees within a selected 1 square degree area
• The 2nd step asks the user a series of questions to do with leaf/stem characteristics and narrows down the groups
• Log tree sightings with the electronic log which can be sorted by Common Name, Scientific Name, Location and Date
• Receive program updates free of charge (when available)
