The Heat Stress Overlay module is in accordance with the 2019 DPRA Heat stress report.
Modules
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 selectable modules are:
- DPRA Heat Stress Module. This module is more detailed and based on the 2019 DPRA Heat stress report. It can generate multiple Heat Stress Overlay result types as child overlays;
- UNESCO Heat stress module. This module generates a simple heat stress overlay which visualizes the Relative Physiological equivalent temperature result type. It uses a different (and smaller) set of formulas to calculate heat differences. It does not calculate the expected Physiological Equivalent Temperature.
Notes
- The Heat Stress Overlay in certain past projects used the UNESCO Heat Module, rather than the DPRA Heat Stress Module, for legacy reasons.
