Abstract: Hannover's inner city area is to be redesigned to be climate-resilient in terms of blue-green infrastructure. Smart water elements are being installed as part of the Smart City measure Heat.Water.Management. The water elements serve to specifically improve the quality of stay during hot phases through evaporative cooling. The team of the Digital Landscape Ecology working group at LUH will scientifically accompany this redesign measure from a geographical perspective through spatial monitoring. The spatial monitoring includes spatial mapping with a geographical information system (GIS) before, during and after the remodelling measures. In addition, user surveys will be carried out on site before and after the remodelling measures in order to record the urban population's perception of the blue-green remodelling measures.
