Project

CLIMADAPTOOL

In an interdisciplinary cooperation of landscape architects, urban climatologists and GIS specialists we work on a tool that helps citizens and municipalities to take fast action on urban climate adaptation via a smartphone app- the CLIMADAPTOOL.

We acquired funding for a new research project via the AMS stimulus fund. The research project aims at generating the CLIMADAPTOOL- a data system and smartphone app which shows high resolution maps, indicating urban climate problems (such as heat stress) and potentials for improvement. Also, the CLIMADAPTOOL provides a recommendation map with location specific interventions for urban climate improvement and an extensive catalogue with concrete adaptation measures.
