SHELTER Cost-Benefit Analysis Tool (CBA Tool)

The tool is used to select and economically evaluate individual measures aimed at the sustainability and protection of cultural heritage. The tool is created using macros in MS Excel and thus allows for universal use in almost any condition. A basic database of measures is included in the package, but updating is also possible if new measures are added. The tool allows to analyse the costs and benefits associated with a specific measure, predict the payback for a specific hazard, and compare individual measures. It makes it useful to support the decision-making process in cultural heritage protection.
