A model estimating forest growth, stock, harvest amount and comparing incomes from forestry and alternative land uses on a global scale. 

The SIIA framework combines principles from technology assessment ("Technikfolgenabschätzung") with process and systems engineering across all life cycle stages. Its core focus is on the integration of processes, systems, and sectors; the role of storages, batteries, and securities in temporal integration; and the interaction of networks, grids, infrastructure and trade routes for spatial integration.

The SPES Explorer – European Pressing Issues Dashboard is a web-based interactive application that visualises how citizens across European countries have perceived their most pressing national problems over time. It combines country-level maps with time-series charts and offers optional breakdowns by age group and gender. Users can explore, compare, and download harmonised indicators derived from Eurobarometer surveys. SPES examines productivity, equity, sustainability, participation and human security. The dashboard documents citizens’ perspectives by showing how people prioritise problems in their countries. It supports scenario building and policy dialogue by revealing shifts in perceived challenges that may motivate, accelerate, or constrain sustainable development pathways.

These annual migrant flow estimates provide a comprehensive view of how people move between countries worldwide. Using advanced deep-learning techniques, the dataset combines official statistics, international migration databases, and innovative data sources to generate consistent and reliable estimates, including for countries with limited migration data. The result is a valuable resource for analyzing global migration trends and patterns over time.

Guidebook for designing and running in-person workshops.

The Rapid Impact Model Emulator (RIME) and its probabilistic extension, RIME-X (Rapid Impact Model Emulator Extended), are lightweight, open-source software tools developed at IIASA to bridge the gap between global emissions pathways and climate impacts and risk assessment. These emulators enable researchers to explore thousands of potential futures in seconds, facilitating a deeper integration between the climate impact (IPCC WGII) and mitigation (IPCC WGIII) communities. 

A model to reproduce historical wildfire events and to project future burned areas, as well as to assess climate change impacts and adaptation options.

For studying optimal policies and interventions to inform regional decision makers facing technological, economic and social transitions, we have developed the Dynamic Framework for Regional Socio-Economic Transitions (D-RESET).

Stakeholder engagement is a crucial part of informed and sustainable decision-making. The first step in stakeholder engagement is to understand their vision, their roles, and their expectations. The Stakeholders Exploratory Vision Analysis (SEVA) is a flexible exploratory tool to analyze the stakeholders’ vision. SEVA is designed to be easy to use yet provide flexibility so it can be applied in different fields for stakeholder engagement.

Update of the human core of the SSPs: Population and Human Capital Projections to 2100

A dataset that allows users to browse, select, visualize and download demographic data and population projections.
