Definition of traffic-light type visualization for portfolio analysis use-case #81

Summary

Define how to adapt the asset screen to be more readily understandable for a portfolio analysis use-case.

We want a 'single click' calculation that will give a quick traffic-light style answer.

'Portfolio analysis' is an assessment of the climate risk of the assets, primarily hazard-map-based (as opposed to an event-based approach used in a stress testing scenario).

Climate risk and exposure

The traffic light is driven by climate risk as opposed to exposure, although exposure should be easily visible. e.g. an asset might be exposed to flood today but climate projections do not show a material increase in flood frequency/severity. The climate risk might therefore be low even if exposure is not. One aim is to make this nuance clear.
