Toolkit

This kit lists tools for the improved management of MLS at the catchment level. As such, it can be used by communities, trusts and catchment partnerships to accurately identify, target and evaluate potential catchment-based MLS-concepts and (spatial) flood risk management measures.

+++ Please note that, at this moment, the toolkit is under development - the list is therefore not complete +++
