INRES^2

Story

Heavy rainfall events are becoming more frequent due to climate change, and cities such as Vienna are particularly affected by the consequences due to the high degree of sealing.

Simple and transparent web applications for planning sustainable, green rainwater solutions are a key aspect of creating climate-resilient cities.This is because the planning, implementation and operation of rainwater management systems often pose problems for those affected due to their enormous complexity. INReS² provides a remedy here. Based on a BIM construction database and calculations based on predefined and scientifically developed parameters, solutions for decentralised and integrative green rainwater management are created and made accessible via a web interface. This holistic approach of a low-threshold web application, supplemented by compatibility with BIM software, covers the needs of all potential stakeholders.

INReS² builds on the results of the projects RW decision matrix (1st prize business agency “Rainwater in the city” and INReS²) and INReS exploratory study (SdZ 7th call for tenders).
