Baseline Maps

Monitoring and impact assessment requires the establishment of a representative pre-NBS baseline, that serves as a basis against which performance and impact of NBS implementation can be assessed. The pre-NBS baseline is based on average 2012-2016 data, corresponding with long-term average temperature and precipitation data for the considered front-runner cities (Tampere, FI; Eindhoven, NL; Genova, IT). Baseline data include land use, urban centres, environmental amenities, temperature, precipitation, flooding, air pollution, demographic and socio-economic data, obtained from publicly available data sources and that are stored, visualized and downloadable through the GoogleSites-based application (https://sites.google.com/view/unalab/baseline-maps).
