Decentralisation Potential Assessment

How this scenario's blue-green infrastructure reduces runoff and redistributes retention across each city and its districts.

Runoff generated
Run the assessment to see this distribution.
Feasibility split

Whether each city’s blocks can fit the infrastructure this scenario needs, at the current coverage.

Runoff depth, before and after
Run the assessment to compare runoff depth.

Retention per km² built

Two cities can reach the same retention while one needs twice the land. That is the cost question.

Add at least two cities with a live run to compare.
Land needed per block

Area available for infrastructure on each block, scaled by the current coverage and technology.
