Description

This interactive web tool was developed with the aim to illustrate the current state of soil sealing of the neighborhoods in Berlin. It can be used in order to estimate the demand for soil that will arrise once we employ nature based solutions in order increase climate resilience in our neighborhoods. In the current version only the neigborhood Wrangelkiez can be explored. The maps and the diagrams are derived from Berlin Open Data provided in the Environmental Atlas of the Senate Department for the Environment, Urban Mobility, Consumer Protection and Climate Action.
