CoSpatial Heat - Joint spatial coordination of heat supply in Gleisdorf

CoSpatial Heat is developing an integrated, geodata-based heating and gas supply planning concept for the Gleisdorf region. By jointly considering space heating, process heat, and gas infrastructure, future supply, expansion, and decommissioning areas are identified. The systemic integration of GIS analyses, consumption data, energy audits, and stakeholder knowledge generates robust decision-making foundations for municipalities, industry, and network operators.

CollEction, Standardization and Attribution of Robust disaster Event information (CESARE)

Event-, damage and loss as well as risk data are rarely intercomparable as they have been produced in most cases for different purposes and with diverging methodologies. CESARE aims at a functional demonstration of a national event and loss database that enables a centralized access to harmonized event and loss information based on different data sources.
