+## Adding trees in City4CFD
+
+[City4CFD](https://github.com/tudelft3d/City4CFD) is an open-source tool that automatically reconstructs 3D city geometries tailored for microscale urban flow simulations. Its capabilities include reconstruction at multiple levels of detail, as well as including semantic surfaces, best practice guidelines set-up, and even multi-level geometry based on distance from point of interest.
+
+This MSc thesis aims to add to City4CFD the automatic reconstruction of trees, this would facilitate their use within microclimate urban flow simulations with OpenFOAM. To start this topic, you would need to delve into the work from [De Groot 2020](https://repository.tudelft.nl/islandora/object/uuid%3A3e169fc7-5336-4742-ab9b-18c158637cfe), and explore how his approach to reconstruct trees at a different level of detail could be improved and implemented within City4CFD.
+
+If you choose this topic, you can expect to learn about automatic geometry reconstruction and GIS data handling. To run CFD for testing can be optional. Programming experience and interest is an advantage for this topic. Your work will require the implementation of source code (in C++ preferably, but Python or others could be used).
