General information
The aim of the project is to develop software for mapping and evaluating neighbourhoods in terms of available resources (including floor space and material flows in buildings, open spaces) and to make it available to local authorities for communication, decision-making support and management purposes. This tool is intended to make existing resource stocks and flows quantifiable. In addition, the project aims to contribute to increasing acceptance of sustainable urban development.

Result and effect
Results and impacts in terms of affordability and other ecological and social target values
