Tool: Raster Model

The Raster model is a disaggregate model of environmental impacts of urban land use and transport. It was developed in the EU project PROPOLIS (Planning and Research of Policies for Land Use and Transport for Increasing Urban Sustainability). Combined with a land-use transport model as the IRPUD model, the Raster model calculates for a given set of land use and traffic flow data energy consumption, greenhouse gas emissions, biodiversity and loss of open space and spatially disaggregate indicators for air quality and noise intrusion, taking account of the disaggregate distribution of ...
