Abstract
• This study presents a novel Decision Support Model to map opportunities for climate adaptation. • High resolution data are essential to map land use in both public and private space. • The Decision Support Model supports action-driven implementation of climate adaptation. • The DSM shows a relationship between urban design and different adaptation measures. • The DSM can support in evaluating adaptation efforts in different spatial contexts.
