COOLCITY-TRACK: Climate Observation and Optimal Local Cooling - City Resilience Assessment and Climate Knowledge
COOLCITY-TRACK is an advanced environmental analysis tool designed to optimize local cooling and enhance the resilience of cities in the face of global warming. Through a climate observation approach, the system aims to identify optimal strategies to mitigate urban heat islands and assess the overall city's resilience to climate challenges.
The tool utilizes data from a network of environmental sensors placed in various urban areas, collecting valuable information on temperature and climate variations over time. This data is integrated with high-resolution satellite imagery to provide a comprehensive view of the city's climatic conditions.
Based on this information, COOLCITY-TRACK analyzes urban heat islands and proposes tailored solutions to reduce heat impacts and improve thermal comfort. Suggestions may include implementing parks, green spaces, and reflective surfaces to mitigate local warming.
Furthermore, COOLCITY-TRACK assesses the city's resilience to future climate challenges, considering different climate scenarios and potential adaptation measures. This helps urban planners and policymakers make informed decisions on urban planning and resource allocation to enhance the city's ability to withstand the impacts of climate change.
By offering a comprehensive assessment of urban climatology and personalized mitigation measures, COOLCITY-TRACK aims to help cities become more resilient, sustainable, and comfortable, providing a better quality of life for their citizens in the face of global climate challenges.
