The objective of the INVERCLIMA project is to develop a green infrastructure delineation methodology applicable in Galicia. This page contains the technical material developed by the project that is necessary to apply this methodology. It includes:
– R scripts for calculating the provision of ecosystem services.
– R scripts for analysing synergies and antagonisms between ecosystem services.
– R script for calculating maps used in the delineation of ecological corridors.
– An algorithm for the automatic delineation of other green infrastructure elements (buffer zones and multifunctional zones).
