GreenPlan


GreenPlan is a project by the Research Council of Norway, led by NINA and conducted in collaboration with the public adminsitration, stakeholders and academic institutions

GreenPlan contributes to a Transformative Change towards sustainable land planning by combining cutting edge technological developments with active societal participation

GreenPlan builds upon advances across disciplines to develop analytical methods to map and quantify ecological networks, functional connectivity and cumulative impacts

GreenPlan develops nation-wide high-resolution maps of GI for birds, mammals, insect and plants, and initializes the Norwegian Ecological Network database

GreenPlan initiates a Science-Policy Arena for Dialogue on sustainable land planning. Through scoping processes and solution-scanning exercises GreenPlan co-develop visions and solutions to aid sustainable land planning locally, nationally and internationally

GreenPlan co-develops with the public administration and stakeholders a portfolio of decision-making support tools to concretely aid sustainable land planning for biodiversity and Ecosystem Services. This includes technologies for multispecies Land Prioritization for conservation, mitigation, restoration, and to perform Scenario Analyses to forecast the impact of changes in climate or land use (e.g. build new infrastructures) 


SEE PROTOTYPE APP BY CLICKING ON THE IMAGE BELOW

This is an early-stage prototype App, to be co-developed by GreenPlan. Through thee App you will be able to interact with maps of Ecological Connectivity, and use support-tools to account for Green Infrastructures in sustainable land planning in Norway. This prototype allows viewing test-maps for Oslo Municipality, testing early-stage functionalities, and anchoring the dialogue with users, so we can acquire conceptual and technical feedbacks for the co-creation of relevant land planning support tools
