In order to configure a Heat Stress Overlay, a module has to be selected. The module can be configured by opening the [[Heat Stress Overlay Wizard]].


The heat stress overlay is an [[Overlay]] which displays the average temperature deviation (positive or negative) in different colors for the project area, indicating transitions in temperatures, resulting in heat-stress.
The selectable modules are:
* [[DPRA Heat Stress Module]]. This module is more detailed and based on the 2019 {{Heat DPRA Report}}. It can generate multiple Heat Stress Overlay [[Result types (Heat Stress Overlay)|result types]] as child overlays;
* [[UNESCO Heat Module|UNESCO Heat stress module]]. This module generates a simple heat stress overlay which visualizes the [[Pet_relative_result_type_(Heat_Overlay)|Relative Physiological equivalent temperature]] result type. It uses a different (and smaller) set of formula's to calculate Heat differences. It does not calculate the expected Physiological Equivalent Temperature.

Because the Heat Overlay is directly linked to the heat indicator, it is currently not possible to load this heat overlay separately. To activate the Heat overlay in you project, please see the documentation about the [[Heat Indicator]].
