Tools
How do you substantiate spatial adaptation? In recent years, several tools have been developed and fine-tuned under the Delta Plan on Spatial Adaptation, e.g. the Climate Impact Atlas, Stress test, Climate-proof City Toolbox, Climate Damage Atlas and the Risk Dialogue Roadmap. The tools are available for anyone, free of charge. Several other parties have also developed tools; see the list below. Use the filter to search by issue (waterlogging, heat, drought, and urban flooding), and type of tool. Some tools require external support, others are available free of charge. Find a tool missing?
