Europe.
�1989 - Sinn and Wessolly : physical methods.
�1994 - Mattheck and Breloer : VTA (Visual Tree Assessment).
�1995-2003. SIM (Static Integrated Method) (Wessolly, 1995), SIA (Static Integrated Assessment) (Wessolly, 1995, 2003) and the new diagnostic tools(fractometer, resistograph o, Picus, Arbotom, etc.).
�During the last 20 years, the development and improvement in the hazard tree assessment had been extraordinary: Peltola, Gardiner, Spatz, Sterken, Horacek, Brudi, Koralik; Ellison, Cullen, among others.

Objective of ufm.
•To optimize the leaf area of the entire urban forest by
establishing and maintaining a canopy of genetically
appropriate (adapted & diverse) trees (and shrubs) with
minimum risk to the public, and in a cost-effective manner.

Improvement the state of urban trees in the city of La Coruña with the direct
result in: better photosynthesis activity , environmental improvements,…
Better selection of species in microspaces that allows a complete development
(crowns complete and healthy); •Change in the PRUNING typology to get a more rational and coherent it.
•Trees healthier, S/volume of the crown higher with the consecuent benefits, CO2 emissions minimization (few resources…). Plastic, visual and amenity improveness: cities healthier with higher visual enrichment.
Energy: Ecosistemic services. Urban tree healthier, bigger, natural---Optimizationof benefits… more ecosistemic services… more energy savings.
