Museums, historical buildings, and archaeological sites are indisputably affected by climate change. It is important to evaluate all possible environmental threats to prepare preventive actions.
YADES project aims to train a network of fellows on how to preserve and boost resilience of cultural heritage areas and historic cities against climate change and associated hazards.
The fellows are trained to develop and introduce a detailed map with visualisations to monitor the whole system of hazards from atmospheric and other damage functions to historic buildings and areas.
The data from the monitoring platform will be analysed by a simulation system and provided to local authorities, enabling necessary mitigation actions.

DABC role

The role of POLIMI-DABC is to extract extra data concerning the open public spaces, parks and green spaces and producing the green infrastructure network inside the Cultural Heritage urban areas by proposing Nature-Based Solutions indicators and enhance socioeconomic resilience of the Cultural Heritage area. POLIMI-DABC is responsible for the spatial analysis and vulnerability models using green approaches and for the development of NBS solutions “modelling” for Cultural Heritage centres, based of green models for the cities.
