Coloured Books
What we use Coloured books for
Coloured Books were used as the basis for the software programs EFFECTS and RISKCURVES and still are the reference for most of the models in this software. The studies were initiated by the Dutch Government in the 1990s.
Although the corresponding software EFFECTS and RISKCURVES is continuously being improved and extended, the books are not kept up-to-date anymore.
