Climate change intensifies urban heatwaves, raising health risks. Our 3D platform studies thermal comfort and urban changes. Users can model impacts and visualize effects, helping avoid hot areas.
The associated health risks facing people are on the increase, and urban areas are growing steadily, now home to the majority of the world's population. Urbanization processes thus produce vulnerability and exposure which, combined with the hazards of climate change, generate major urban risks and impacts for our societies. Increasing the resilience of cities in the face of extreme heat is therefore a decisive challenge for future urban planning strategies and population health. There is a need to propose solutions for intelligent, sustainable development that respond both to mitigation and adaptation to these two thermal disturbances.

The system’s main components have been individually tested, and an initial integration has been completed.
Our innovation addresses the following challenges:
– The development of vegetation coupled with a water cycle approach
-Systematize albedo enhancement on public spaces and buildings – Dewatering of public spaces – Consideration of thermal comfort in public and private spaces
– Changing city-building practices and developing a range of services associated with heat waves thanks to fine-resolution modeling over an entire city, climate change is taken into account in modeling, and future developments related to buildings and the built environment are taken into account.
Innovation from a CNRS research laboratory and the University of Lyon. The product will mature in the laboratory between 2015 and 2022, before being launched as a start-up and spin-off from these two public bodies, thanks to a technology transfer and innovation maturation company.
We see no limits to our innovation at the moment. In 2024, we will be integrating the thermal properties of materials, so that we can optimize the dimensions of our layouts in terms of thermal comfort.
