This article is a stub.
Several geopgraphical features can have attributes which can contribute to the calculations the Heat Overlay. These attributes are stored as part of the features, and are then rasterized and used on a grid cell level.
Construction attributes
Construction attributes can be changed individually per construction or per construction's function. In most cases, these attributes already exist as a function value.
| Icon | Attribute | Unit | Function value | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BOWEN_RATIO | ratio | Bowen ratio | Describes the rate of heat transfer for a surface that has moisture as a factor. | |
| FOLIAGE_CROWN_FACTOR | ratio | Foliage crown factor | The ratio between the height of tree trunks and the radius of the foliage of the tree. | |
| GREEN_M2 | m²/m² | Green space | The amount of the surface which is considered vegetation. |
Terrain attributes
| Attribute | Unit | Terrain type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| VEGETATION_FRACTION | m²/m² | Surface | The amount of the surface which is considered vegetation. |
Area attributes
| Attribute | Unit | Description |
|---|---|---|
| FOLIAGE_HEIGHT | m | The top height of foliage for a surface geometry described by an Area. |
