SEMANCO: Semantic tools for carbon reduction in urban planning

The purpose of SEMANCO (www.semanco-project.eu) is to provide semantic tools to stakeholders involved in urban planning (architects, planners, engineers, local administrators, policy makers and citizens) to help them make informed decisions about how to reduce carbon emissions in cities. The tools are being applied in demonstration scenarios in Copenhagen (Denmark), Newcastle upon Tyne (UK), and Manresa, Barcelona (Spain).
