In this article we outline the model development planned within the joint projectModel-based city planningand application in climate change (MOSAIK). The MOSAIK project is funded by the German FederalMinistry of Education and Research (BMBF) within the frameworkUrban Climate Under Change ([UC]2)since 2016. The aim of MOSAIK is to develop a highly-efficient, modern, and high-resolution urban climatemodel that allows to be applied for building-resolving simulations of large cities such as Berlin (Germany).The new urban climate model will be based on the well-established large-eddy simulation code PALM, whichalready has numerous features related to this goal, such as an option for prescribing Cartesian obstacles. Inthis article we will outline those components that will be added or modified in the framework of MOSAIK.Moreover, we will discuss the everlasting issue of acquisition of suitable geographical information as inputdata and the underlying requirements from the model's perspective.
