Climate Street Tool: a digital application for climate-adaptive streets<\/h1>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t

The challenges faced by cities and municipalities today are becoming increasingly complex. Climate change, urbanisation and rising expectations around quality of life require new ways of working.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n

Digitalisation as a key driver for smarter urban development<\/h2>\n

Digitalisation plays a crucial role here. It is not just about technology, but about using data, models and tools more intelligently to make better decisions and accelerate processes.<\/p>\n

At Sweco, digitalisation is applied across the entire value chain: from design and analysis to execution and management. By strategically integrating digital solutions, projects become more efficient, more sustainable and better aligned with the needs of clients and users.<\/p>\n

The Climate Street Tool is a concrete example of how this digital vision is applied in practice.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

Digital support for climate-adaptive street design<\/h2>\n

Designing climate-adaptive streets today requires combining multiple factors: water management, greening, mobility, space usage and budget.<\/p>\n

The Climate Street Tool does not replace detailed design, but acts as a strategic instrument that helps define direction more quickly. It enables local authorities to explore scenarios, support decision-making and build consensus at an early stage of the project.<\/p>\n

The tool provides a strong initial analysis and a clear starting point. This allows teams to work more efficiently and make better-informed decisions.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n

Data and design integrated in one digital tool<\/h2>\n

The Climate Street Tool was developed within Sweco using Viktor.ai and fits within a broader digitalisation strategy where data and modelling are central.<\/p>\n

As with other digital solutions such as BIM or digital twins, different data sources are brought together in one environment to generate better insights.<\/p>\n

The tool combines spatial design with direct calculations of:<\/p>\n
