The Tygron Platform can help engineers to assess the potential impacts of climate change on their cities, including extreme rainfall, drought, and heat stress. This can help to optimize limited resources and ensure that solutions are sustainable and effective over the long term.
The Tygron Platform provides a range of features and tools to support climate-resilient planning. Some of the key ways that the platform supports climate resiliency include:
- Water system analysis. modeling the movement of water through the system and test different scenario’s. Explore water management strategies, including water storage and distribution infrastructure to ensure that water is available during periods of drought.
- Extreme Rainfall: Gain insight in insights in the performance of the water system under extreme rainfall conditions, includes the intensity, duration, and frequency of the rainfall.
- Heat stress: Simulate the physiological equivalent temperature (PET) and the effects of reflective surfaces, green roofs, and trees to provide shade.
- Design and simulate climate resilient cities and sustainable urban drainage systems that can absorb and manage heavy rainfall events. This can include green infrastructure, such as parks, green roofs, and rain gardens, as well as hard infrastructure, such as stormwater detention basins and permeable pavements.
- Drought: Cities can promote climate resilience by implementing water conservation strategies, such as promoting water-efficient appliances, drought-tolerant landscaping, and water reuse systems.
