D3.5 Preliminary dashboard specification

PIISA Clay Shrink Swell Building Damage Assessor will be an online website designed to educate homeowners about their financial risks associated with inadequate insurance cover for property damage caused by clay shrink swell events. The Clay Shrink Swell Building Damage Assessor will be pilot tested in the City of Lyon and then taking account of lessons learned in this process will be replicated in other cities and regions in France. Concurrently with this replication in other cities and regions in France we will research the risk level and insurance framework for other EU countries to identify demand for replication of the Clay Soil Shrinkage Building Damage Assessor in other EU countries. This document is the preliminary specification for the Clay Shrink Swell Building Damage Assessor and articulates the methodology and data which will be used in the Clay Shrink Swell Building Damage Assessor. It also summarises the background research on the topic and various aspects of the user journey/interface which may be embedded in the Clay Shrink Swell Building Damage Assessor (although this user journey/interface will be under constant iteration during the software development phase). Finally it includes the contracting information which we will use to instruct a third-party web developer to develop the Clay Shrink Swell Building Damage Assessor. This document is an outcome from work in Task 3.2.2 which develops one of the five pilots of PIISA WP3. As stated in the workplan, ‘T3.2.2 Climate adaptation dashboard for financial assessments’ develops a guide to homeowners on financial risk assessments regarding cases of clay shrink swell damage.
