ArchEPI Demo.
Imagine you are working on a multi-family residential development with ground floor retail in New York City.
In a few clicks, ArchEPI will tell you:
How the new building or renovation could contribute to the overall health of the neighborhood where it is located.
Which design strategies will be most effective at providing tangible community benefit.
Which metrics link those design strategies to community priorities, such as the local climate action plan, community health needs assessment, air quality plan, etc.
Let’s get started.
Step 1.
Select the neighborhood where the development is located.
Step 2.
Review the results of a health situation analysis of the site. ArchEPI results draw on national and local datasets to display neighborhood environmental exposures and population health needs.
Step 3.
General results list evidence-based design strategies by scope (development, public sector, and shared). Each strategy is linked with community metrics laid out in local policies, as well as the three priority health conditions that were established on the previous screen.
Step 4.
Advanced users can input their development’s contributions to community metrics to create a customized dashboard.
Step 5.
Dig deeper into the data with tables linking priority health topics with design strategies, and local policy metrics.
