The methodology brings about new and practical approaches in assessment of five ecosystem functions and services of town greenery. It covers four regulation functions (microclimate regulation, carbon sequestration, pollution and noise reduction) and one information function (aesthetic and cultural-recreation). The calculus is based on a single greenery object evaluation using simplified biophysical and statistic models, however complying with all natural principles. The models utilize data standardly available in urban greenery passports and those which are accessible via map servers, e.g. meteorological situation and sociodemographic conditions.
