NATURE DEMO Decision Support Tool

The NATURE DEMO DST is a multi-module interactive decision-support platform that enables users to assess climate risks to infrastructure, explore climate indices, and evaluate nature-based solutions (NbS) through map-based analysis, scenario data, and AI-assisted reporting.

Open tool

What you can do with it

Input

  • Select an area of interest.
  • Explore relevant climate, environmental and infrastructure information.
  • Access available observational, climate-model and impact/sectoral data.
  • Incorporate own input data, where available.

Output

  • Map-based climate-risk analyses
  • Climate indicators
  • Infrastructure risk information
  • Nature-based solution information and factsheets
  • Comparative assessment of adaptation options, including costs and benefits
  • Decision-support reports and AI-assisted reporting

Use it to

  • Assess climate risks to infrastructure
  • Explore relevant climate indicators
  • Identify and examine nature-based solutions
  • Compare adaptation options and their costs and benefits
  • Support the assessment and prioritisation of adaptation options
  • Generate supporting analysis and reports for decision-making

Why is it relevant to climate adaptation

Brings climate risk information, infrastructure considerations and adaptation options together, helping users move from identifying risks to comparing possible responses and their costs and benefits. Its different levels of interaction also make it suitable for users with different levels of technical expertise.

Used in

  • NATURE DEMO demonstration sites
  • Climate-risk assessment for infrastructure
  • Nature-based solution assessment
  • Adaptation option comparison and prioritisation
