A tool which monetizes Ecosystem Services (ESS) and Triple Bottom Line (TBL) criteria to assess LID options (described as Sustainable Drainage Systems, SuDS). The tool guides the user to consider some or all of the co-benefits listed on the right . Whilst the relative values may be useful for assessing options, the currency of this model is in GBP (£).
