The tool will go to the location selected. Afterwards, draw the area of the measure:
Figure 7. Drawing of the project area
Once the area is drawn, the AST will give the total area of the measure.
Figure 8. Output after drawing the project area
Press next to continue and fill in all the “project area”parameters. Notice that until all the parameters are not filled in it is not possible to continue to the next step.
Figure 9. "Project area" parameters
Once all the “project area”parameters have been filled in, press DONE to continue. Thereafter, draw the measure in the map. This measure can be a polygon, a line or a point measure.
After drawing the measure, give it a name in “Area name”and click CHOOSE MEASURE to choose the measure wished to apply.

After selecting CHOOSE MEASURE, a list with all the measures will appear, as seen in the image below:
Figure 11. List of measures in the AST
The listed measures have values which are their ranking according to the “project area” parameters previously selected.

In the list with the measures, it is also possible to observed icons, which indicate the climate effect those measures have:
In order to have more information on a certain measure, click LEARN MORE. When clicking LEARN MORE, the climate effect of that measure will be shown, as well as a short description of it and an image.
