PBL: Updated spatial density dataset provides new insights into land use
What is the building density of your neighbourhood, how does it compare with those of other neighbourhoods, and how can territorial evidence about building densities contribute to the ambitions of the No Net Land Take target?
PBL Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency (Planbureau voor de Leefomgeving) has created a data set to use in comparing building densities nationwide and in conducting research on how building density influences various aspects of urban life, such as energy consumption, mobility, climate adaptation, and public health.
For the ESPON TERITORI-ALL online magazine PBL wrote an article that explains the RUDIFUN dataset and how this tool can be applied.
