I've created a wiki page specifically about the tree data import.

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Birmingham_City_Council_trees_data

It would be better if somebody involved in running the import, would do this 
(per the Import Guidelines), but I've drawn together various info I could find 
from Brian's blog posts, and from poking at the data myself.

I didn't poke at the origin data. We could document the complete list of fields 
they provide.
Also is the whole data set is now imported? I count ~43000 nodes, but Brian's 
blog mentions 76,000 trees. How many changesets was that? To what extent has 
the data now been modified after import? What is 'usrn'?
