Ecosystem services and green network of the Uusikaupunki city
In support of partial master plan planning, a blue-green structure and ecosystem service study of the immediate surroundings of the city center was done. The goal of the study was to secure the area’s most important nature values and ecosystem services as the urban structure becomes denser.
Green factor calculation and method development
The green factor is a ratio that describes the green efficiency of a plot. Different vegetation surfaces and solutions that delay rainwater increase green efficiency.
Resilient shoreline development at Vartiokylänlahti Bay
Nomaji defined the climate-proof shoreline development guidelines for the Vartiokylänlahti bay. Vartiokylänlahti is located in eastern Helsinki between Vuosaari and Vartiokylä.
Resilient shoreline development: case Isosaari
Nomaji defined climate-proof shoreline development guidelines for the Isosaari island in Helsinki. The challenge was to manage complex climate impacts from the perspective of land use and nature values.
RT-card: Climate-conscious design
Nomaji created a climate-aware design guide set for Building Information. The guide set consists of three separate guides: “Basic information about the climate for designers”, “climate conscious design: landuse”, “climate conscious design: architecture”.
Ecosystem services information for planners
Nomaji has completed a compact publication for the City of Helsinki about ecosystem services in an urban setting. It is an introduction to the varied benefits that green space offers for the citizens.
