Abstract
Horvath, P., Barton, D.N., Hauglin, E.A. & Ellefsen, H.W. 2017. Blue-Green Factor (BGF) map-ping in QGIS. User Guide and Documentation - NINA Report 1445. 47 pp. The blue-green factor (BGF) is a rapid assessment tool to help quantify minimum municipal requirements for surface water management, vegetation qualities and biodiversity in outdoor areas of property developments. BGF-QGIS makes it possible to calculate the blue-green factor for larger areas than in the original Excel-based methodology, by taking advantage of remote sensing data, GIS datasets, and CAD-based design proposals. It also provides a flexible platform for adjusting the scoring of blue-green qualities to suit specific local conditions and priorities.
 
Horvath, P., Barton, D.N., Hauglin, E.A. & Ellefsen, H.W. 2017. Blue-Green Factor (BGF) mapping in QGIS. User Guide and Documentation - NINA Rapport 1445. 47 s. Blågrønn faktor (BGF) er et verktøy som kvantifiserer krav til uterom når det gjelder vann-håndtering, vegetasjon og biodiversitet i byggesaksprosjekter. BGF-QGIS gjør det mulig å beregne BGF for flere eiendommer og større arealer enn i den opprinnelige Excel-baserte metoden, ved å ta i bruk digitale kartleggingsverktøy som integrerer fjernmålingsdata, GIS dataset og CAD-basert design. QGIS plattformen gjør det også mulig for enkelt-kommuner å tilpasse BGF metoden til lokale forhold ved å endre kriterier og vekter.
