The statement released by the instituitution on March 29 contains the following information:

CleanCityCover zeigt Schadstoff-Hotspots im städtischen Regenwasserabfluss

Forschende der TU Berlin haben mit CleanCityCover ein webbasiertes Werkzeug entwickelt, das belastete Flächen im städtischen Regenwasserabfluss identifiziert. Die Anwendung berücksichtigt unterschiedliche Verschmutzungsquellen und den Einfluss vorausgegangener Trockenperioden. Kommunen sollen damit Maßnahmen zum Gewässerschutz und zur Regenwasserbewirtschaftung gezielter planen können.
