ULL ANTWERP is committed to creating a variety of digital tools for urban planning but needs to address their shortcomings in supporting urban green management. The particular problem areas to address are air pollution in public areas and neighbourhoods and the lack of insights into the development of city- wide breezeways and green corridors. Thus, ULL Antwerp activities will include low-cost monitoring of air pollution, including citizen science involvement, and simulations for the wind field, air quality, and heat. It will also be actively involved in the improvement of the existing tools for urban greenery planning, including its consideration in the emerging urban digital twins. Finally, ULL Antwerp will coordinate landscape and spatial analysis and will support the integration of new evidence through the comprehensive parameterization of the urban environment.
