Welcome. A moment-to-moment story...

leafsnap: An electronic field guide


Help identify rare, native and exotic trees while enjoying a walk on the trails around Spring Pond.  leafsnap is a free ipad or iphone app, which helps identify the leaf of a tree from a photograph.  Share your discoveries here ( peace@springpondwoods.com ). 

Columbia University, the University of Maryland, and the Smithsonian Institute are working together on this visual recognition software to help identify species from photographs.  


To use leafsnap, take a photo of a leaf (from a tree only) with a white background behind it.  Once a photo is taken, leafsnap will conclude with top options for identification.

See leafsnap.com for more info.
