The first roundtable within the digiLARCH network in the year 2026 focuses on how BIM-based model for open spaces/landscape areas can support life cycle assessment (LCA) and cost-effectiveness comparisons for climate adaptation measures, especially in rainwater and stormwater management, and enable better decisions early in the project.
The presentation will be given by the Hochschule Osnabrück team (Ilona Brückner, Tammo Jochens and Mascha Viktoria Winter) from Germany. https://www.hs-osnabrueck.de/rain2bim
In addition, we’ll also open the floor for related activities and approaches from other countries, e.g. for Joachim Kräftner to present preliminary results from the Austrian INRES2 project. https://gruenstattgrau.at/projekt/inres2/
To make the topic tangible, we also include a short look at a software application that demonstrates how these methods can be implemented in practice – presented by Vilma Pylkkö from Symetri.
