DTM, DSM, CHM and how many other acronyms? Today, technology allows us to measure the territory without being there. From the size of fields to the height of trees, remote sensing makes it possible to read the world from above (and beyond).
Reporting, monitoring, surveys, and prevention are the most powerful weapons in the fight against species that are threatening our urban green spaces.
Across the globe, “depaving” transforms cities by replacing excess pavement with green spaces, cooling streets, reducing floods, and boosting biodiversity. This movement reimagines urban design for a sustainable future.
As summer brings intense heat, air conditioning is vital but contributes to global warming due to high energy use and harmful refrigerants. Innovation in cooling technology is essential to break this cycle.
Can cars and pedestrians coexist in large cities? The number of cars is growing, and Italian mobility is unsustainable. Will the bicycle be the ideal way to get around metropolises?
The Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute (KNMI) has released new climate scenarios that provide insight into what weather changes await the Netherlands in the coming decades as a result of climate change.
Green rooftops cannot replace real forests and parks but they can create small biodiversity oases in highly urbanized areas and contribute to the fight against the climate crisis.
Adding more nature onto industrialized farm fields and more green areas within cemented cities can help local biodiversity. Green buffer and transition zones are a good example.
