Municipalities and governments seeking a tool to manage urban growth and prevent major threats
About GREENPASS
While urban growth accelerates worldwide, urban areas are becoming more sensitive to climate change. Urban Heat Islands (UHI), air pollution, and pluvial flooding are major threats to urban development and the health and safety of city populations. Municipalities need to take action to solve urban growth and climate change impacts. GREENPASS helps planners, developers and municipalities make the best decision for each phase of urban planning and development – dealing with up to 6 urban challenges. GREENPASS makes the impacts of green infrastructures and other structural measures on the urban environment visible, measurable, and comparable. GREENPASS offers the right solution for each phase of urban planning processes. From checking drafts to detailed planning and realization. Preliminary analysis based on machine learning database interrogation. Standard analysis based on regular BASIC simulation.

UrbanSim
Support planning and analysis of urban development, incorporating the interactions between land use, transportation, the economy, and the environment. Explore the effects of infrastructure and policy choices on community outcomes such as motorized and non-motorized accessibility, housing affordability, greenhouse gas emissions, and the protection of open space and environmentally sensitive habitats. Quickly configure and launch UrbanSim simulations harnessing cloud-based scalability. Deliver actionable insights regardless of in-house technical expertise. The block-level UrbanSim template comes ready to go with employment, household, and socioeconomic data for almost 400 Metropolitan Planning Organizations across the United States and street networks from OpenStreetMap to compute accessibility metrics.

CityCAD
Unlike other CAD and GIS software, it was created for urban planners from the beginning, and makes it easy to create 3D models using tried and tested building types and urban typologies. CityCAD offers a quick and easy way of sketching urban masterplans in 3D. Junctions with simple kerb radii are automatically created where routes intersect. If you move roads, then adjacent urban blocks are automatically re-sized. CityCAD offers a range of sophisticated analysis features, giving you quantitative insights into your masterplan from the earliest conceptual design stages. You can create a custom library of land use types and apply these to building floors. You can enter assumptions for electrical and other energy consumption, water use and refuse generation rates (per person, dwelling unit or unit of area) and total values are instantaneously calculated as you build and evolve your design.

ENVI-met
ENVI-met is a 3D microclimate simulation software. The software is used for a wide range of applications, including urban planning, building design, and energy efficiency, considering not only one single climate parameter, but all of them. ENVI-met can simulate a variety of climate conditions, including day- and night-time temperatures, humidity, wind speed, and solar radiation in cities. The software can also simulate the effects of different building materials, such as glass and stone, on the climate of the surrounding environments. The program is used to predict the effects of urban design changes on the microclimate environment and human thermal comfort for people in cities worldwide. As climate change is having a major impact on our planet, it is essential, that more healthier and resilient cities are developed. To support these goals ENVI-met can be used to assess the potential of new buildings, green spaces, and urban planning and to make informed decisions.

ArcGIS Urban
Issues like housing availability, sustainability goals, and economic changes are compelling cities to better plan for the future. ArcGIS Urban enables planners and design professionals to collaborate across teams with a web-based 3D application that supports scenario planning and impact assessment. ArcGIS Urban enables the digital transformation of city and regional planning to encourage collaboration with community stakeholders and help all groups work toward a more sustainable future. Create, track, and review development projects with a digital twin of your city. Incorporating building information modeling (BIM) and other types of 3D information throughout the project review process gives planners and developers a common view of urban development guidelines and reduces the time required for building applications. ArcGIS Urban makes creating, editing, and managing land-use and zoning plans simple with an interactive 3D environment built with planners in mind.
