In 2014 construction was completed on a new closure system for a critical portion of the levee. Through a partnership with federal agencies and regional entities called the Silver Jackets, the District is working collaboratively to mitigate flood risks and improve flood emergency planning and operational coordination. In 2016, the DC Silver Jackets, a partnership of District and federal agencies, developed and released new flood mapping tools for both riverine and coastal flooding. The tools are publicly available and will be used for planning and to build awareness of flood risks throughout the community.6939722017{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-77.0369, 38.9072]}2019-10-16T18:32:22.947

Severe stormwater events place significant pressure on already stressed infrastructure. The Smart H2O platform will allow the DWM to provide users and stakeholders that are part of the incident management team with real time information, including location, pictures, and damage assessments to alert first responders. Through integration of existing WebEOC technology into the Smart H2O platform, this suite of information, combined with historic data of severely impacted areas, provides first responders with situational awareness to most effectively manage severe weather incidents. Furthermore, this program will function as a repository for data that can be used to identify potential flood and drought mitigation infrastructure projects4501822017{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-84.388, 33.749]}2019-10-16T18:32:22.947

The Urban Forest Masterplan conceives a green infrastructure that includes the urban forest, park land, sustainable transportation networks, and pedestrian areas. It provides a vision for Culver City's urban forest and a structured framework of five action areas and related strategies to support achievement of this vision. In 2017, Culver City and Artecho (the consultants who helped to prepare the City's 2016 Urban Forest Master Plan) were the recipients of the American Society of Landscape Architect's Merit Award in recognition of outstanding professional achievement. In recognition of the City's Urban Forest Master Plan, Culver City was named a Tree City USA through a national recognition program sponsored by the Arbor Day Foundation in conjunction with the U.S. Forest Service and National Association of State Foresters.https://web.culvercity.org/files/Culver_City_Urban_Forest_Master_Plan.pdf393952016{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-118.4, 34.02]}2019-10-16T18:32:22.947

Muitos dados importantes para a análise da sustentabilidade, hoje, não se constituíam em problemáticas em décadas anteriores. Além disso, os critérios para acoleta de dados sofreram mudanças de um censo para outro. Dessa forma, a ausência de dados prejudica a qualidade da informação, porém não inviabiliza o trabalho, uma vez que a proposta é uma análise comparativa entre diferentes momentos do processo de desenvolvimento do município em estudo.

The cooling hierarchy takes the following approach:1. Reducing internal heat generation through energy-efficient design; 2. Reducing the amount of heat entering a building in summer through measures such as orientation, shading, albedo, fenestration, insulation and, where appropriate, green roofs and walls; 3. Managing heat within the building, e.g. through use of thermal mass and consideration of window sizes; 4. Passive ventilation; 5. Mechanical ventilation; 6. Only then considering cooling systems (using low carbon options).1249192017{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[0.16353, 52.2077]}2019-10-16T18:32:22.947
