Land use-based Adaptation and Mitigation Solution (LAMS) suitability maps

These maps provide the suitable area (maximum available area) for the potential implementation of the specific proposed LAMS. The suitability map includes 4 classes: not suitable (0), least suitable (1), moderately suitable (2) and most suitable (3). Maps for 13 different LAMS (from the LAMS catalogue V1-1) have been developed for the six RethinkAction case studies, when possible. The codes and the names of the LAMS are the following: LAMS03-EstGra: Establishment (conversion to) of permanent grassland LAMS14-SpaPla: Spatial planning for the sustainable deployment of energy on land LAMS15-PhoPla: Photovoltaic plants LAMS21-AgrPla: Agrovoltaic farms LAMS22-IncFor: Increased portion of forests included under protected areas LAMS23-RefAff: Reforestation/afforestation LAMS31-UrbSpr: Limiting urban sprawl LAMS32-GreUrb: Establishment and maintenance of green urban ecosystems LAMS44-IncCul: Increase in cultivated area LAMS49-FloSol: Floating solar photovoltaic panels in water bodies LAMS50-SolPan: Solar panels in rooftops/buildings LAMS55-WatHar: Water harvesting: collect and store rain water in reservoirs LAMS59-LanMan: Land management of solar photovoltaic systems land
