Climate Change Explorer for Pc

1. This app lets you explore Edinburgh, Scotland’s capital city and a UNESCO World Heritage site, and how climate change is impacting some of its historic sites.

2. The app is based on a 3D model of the city created for the Scottish Ten project, which sought to accurately record Scotland’s World Heritage sites in 3D using cutting edge technologies, to help support their conservation, management, interpretation and virtual accessibility.

3. Changes in our climate, such as the increasing frequency and intensity of extreme weather events, introduces a range of physical climate risks to our organisation.

4. At Historic Environment Scotland, understanding how changes in our climate are impacting our organisation is central to our climate action ambitions.

5. Understanding these risks and impacts, and adapting to them, is a key deliverable of our Climate Action Plan with work currently underway.

6. There are further ‘transition’ climate risks introduced as society takes actions and moves towards a low-carbon economy.

7. This includes risks to our people, the natural capital of our properties, our operations and our physical assets.

8. We're always looking for feedback so please send any ideas on how we can improve the app to digitaldocumentation@hes.scot or rate us in the app store.
