About EvaCva-sustainable

EvaCva-sustainableis a tool that visualizes the regional wealth from the aspect of sustainability using open data.“Eva” stands for “Evaluate”, “Cva” stands for “City Value”. Combining the above, EvaCva-sustainable was named to “Find out and create values of regions.
It is necessary to control and utilize of regional capital that are sources of wealth for well-being in the future living. In EvaCva-sustainable, the value on the municipal district town and village of the Inclusive Wealth Index (Natural Capital, Human Capital, Produced Capital) and the ecosystem services are displayed.

  • Calculating from statistical data disclosed by ministries and agencies in Japan, regional wealth of city, wards, towns or villages are graphed.
  • Multiple local governments in Japan can be selected out of the 1,742 governments. (Cities, wards, towns and villages as of April 1, 2014)
  • Radar charts and rankings by deviation value of indexes related Inclusive Wealth and ecosystem servises, can be displayed.
  • You can compare to all other local governments in Japan or to similar local governments (local governments of same population level).

※Radar charts display the T-scores of indexes. The T-score is scaled to have a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10. The maximum and minimum scores are 80 and 20, respectively, and are displayed as 0 if data is not available (missing value).
