Research Project
Urban Nature Lab: urban challenges for climate and water
A research project to develop a European framework of "nature-based" solutions, addressing climate change and urban growth, in a coordinated and efficient way.
Where: international
Where: international
Challenge
State-of-the-art measures, based on new technologies, are needed to improve cities' resilience to climate change and water management in emergency contexts.
Approach
A research project that aims to develop "nature based" solutions for the urban context.
Engineering leads the partners of the project in finalizing the entire UNaLab technological framework.

Solution
Digital Ecosystem
Integrating the Digital Enabler, our proprietary platform for advanced data management, we enable the monitoring of the new solutions to adopt green measures and an inclusive and innovative urban design.
Engineering leads also the international task force supported by the EU to create the European Interoperable Nature Based Solution Metadata Repository.
The repository will collect the description of the NBSs implemented by the European cities and will be available online to facilitate the diffusion of the NBS in the European countries and in the world.
The project has received co-funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 programme - Contract No. 730052
