The Blue-Green Factor (BGF) is an assessment tool designed to evaluate urban developments based on their surface water management and vegetation qualities. By classifying blue (water-related) and green (vegetationrelated) areas, along with additional ecological features, BGF calculates a score that reflects the resilience and sustainability of a property. This tool supports urban planners in enhancing climate resilience by promoting green infrastructure and integrating nature-based solutions tailored to local conditions.
