	; What is the Bowen Ratio?		; What is the Bowen Ratio?
	: The Bowen Ratio is the ratio between sensible and latent heating during heat transfer from a (moist) surface to its environment.

	; What is the Foliage Crown Factor?		; What is the Foliage Crown Factor?
	: The Foliage Crown Factor is used for calculating the foliage extent of trees. This is more accurate than only using the extent of tree trunks. By applying the Foliage Crown Factor, these tree trunks are transposed into foliage crown extents, which are then used for Heat Stress calculations.~~<br>~~ See also:[[Foliage crown factor]]		: The Foliage Crown Factor is used for calculating the foliage extent of trees.

	; Which data do I need to provide and enter myself?		; Which data do I need to provide and enter myself?
	: Generally speaking, when using the Heat Stress Overlay Wizard, no extra data needs to be provided. The Heat stress Overlay Wizard uses the standard DPRA values and calculations for the Heat Stress model calculations. Some data sets can be improved upon by, for example, adding a more up to date set of trees or by actualizing other elements of the project area (buildings, terrain, etc). Since trees have a big impact on the result, our advice is to consider adding accurate tree data.~~<br>~~ See also:[[Data preparation]]		: Generally speaking, when using the Heat Stress Overlay Wizard, no extra data needs to be provided.

	; Which data is most important to set up?		; Which data is most important to set up?
	: The Heat Stress Overlay Wizard asks for the required data when needed. Most important are the location of the project area and period over which the calculation needs to take place. Also important, for the [[Foliage crown factor]], is the availability of an up to date tree data set, as the ~~Tygron Platform~~ uses public available data, which is not always complete. Besides the trees it is also important to know if the other spatial elements of the project area are up to date, such as terrains and buildings. Please note that for the Heat Stress calculation also the size of the grid cells needs to be taken into consideration, as this impacts the accuracy and length of the calculations.		: The Heat Stress Overlay Wizard asks for the required data when needed.
