Holistic accounting and climate-friendly transformation of urban open spaces

OPEN researches and optimizes urban open spaces' climate resilience amid climate change. It evaluates both green spaces' positive impacts like stormwater management and cooling, and grey, sealed spaces' negative impacts. Phase I analyzes these impacts and interlinkages with settlements and immaterial aspects. Phase II develops climate-friendly scenarios for sustainable urban transformation based on new insights.
