It seems that you can modify the construction of the localic Diaconescu
cover to get an open surjective _filtered_ cover of a Grothendieck topos
Sh(C).

Instead of using the category String(C) of strings in C, you could
construct the category Tree(C) of finite, rooted, binary trees in C. If
given c and d in C you can find e such that e --> c and e --> d then
Tree(C) is a poset with binary upper bounds, i.e. a filtered category.

Could anyone provide a reference for such a construction?

Grateful for any help,
Jonas Eliasson
