Supplementary material underlying the publication: A Geospatial assessment toolbox for spatial allocation of large-scale Nature-based solutions for hydrometeorological risk reduction

Geospatial suitability assessment can support the decision making process when planning climate adaptation measures such as nature-based solutions (NBS). Existing tools for carrying out such assessments are limited in their application for larger scales. This work intends to improve this by employing a multi-criteria analysis (MCA) based approach that incorporates biophysical and land use criteria and conditions for mapping suitability of large-scale NBS. This dataset contains the toolbox used to assess geospatial suitability, and the shapefiles generated by the toolbox. These files were then used to produce suitability maps that are presented as results of this research.

地理空间适宜性评估（Geospatial suitability assessment）可为基于自然的解决方案（Nature-Based Solutions, NBS）等气候适应措施的规划决策提供支撑。当前用于开展此类评估的工具，在大尺度场景下的应用存在明显局限。本研究拟采用基于多准则分析（Multi-Criteria Analysis, MCA）的方法，纳入生物物理与土地利用准则及相关条件，以绘制大尺度基于自然的解决方案的适宜性分布图，从而改善这一现状。本数据集包含用于开展地理空间适宜性评估的工具箱，以及该工具箱生成的形状文件（Shapefile）。上述文件随后被用于生成本研究成果所展示的适宜性分布图。
