Conceptual OpenSKIZZE-Praxis interface: a climate-adaptive site plan with a cold-air corridor and a QGIS plugin panel. — OpenSKIZZE-Praxis · turning the research prototype into a GIS workflow for municipal planning.

Climate-resilience building blocks for municipal planning

OpenSKIZZE-Praxis is a 2026–2027 DBU-funded project (18 months) that operationalizes the OpenSKIZZE AI assistant within formal municipal Bauleitplanung and land-use planning. It is led by the Project Leader (PI) at H-BRS (TREE) in Sankt Augustin.

The project develops a standardized climate-resilience building block — an adapted OpenSKIZZE tool plus action guides and text modules — piloted and validated with the City of Bonn, and published as open-source modules for established GIS (GRASS GIS, QGIS) in cooperation with the Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo).

The result will be a working QGIS plugin.
