Regarding the 3 foliage options (BGT, Area, Geotiff)
#REDIRECT [[FAQ Foliage Heat Overlay]]


From option 1 I would like to know how I can adjust functions per tree, and whether it is possible to include the trees in the analysis, and not to filter them from the data just like buildings.
This page contains Frequently asked questions related to the [[Heat Overlay]] and [[DPRA Heat Module]]. Some have been grouped onto separate pages.
From option 2 I want to know exactly which data is expected, since the point data that I have does not seem to work.
* [[FAQ_Foliage_Heat_Overlay|Foliage related questions]].
For option 3, I would also like to know what this data should look like. For example, is this a grid with height values, where there are only trees? So no individual trees need to be identified?
       
We now have a point data set in which each tree is known as a loose point, to which the tree height and crown surface parameters are given at this time. How can I currently see the crown areas, which are calculated in m2, compared to the tree crown factor?
 
From the sentence "Tree height multiplied by" tree crown factor "judge wheterh the surrounding cells are in the shade." I cannot figure out what exactly you calculate with this. Is this the crown diameter / cross section, radius, perimeter, area?
 
Does the tree then have 1 fixed height value, or does it calculate in the case of a geotiff with several height values ​​to calculate a kind of sphere shape?
       
Do you start from a surface file (I see that the few BGT trees are currently defined together as a polygon)?
 
What exactly do you mean by foliage? Is that the height of the trees relative to the ground level?
 
What exactly does the foliage crown factor mean? What is calculated with that? I assume the crown diameter?
 
How are trees currently included in the model?
 
What is the effect of 1 tree compared to a group of trees (or forest) in the model? Is a distinction made in this?
 
Is it possible to add your own tree file to the module?
 
What should this file look like?
 
I now have a point file for all trees in a test area, with a tree height (m) and a crown area (m2) for each tree. Can I also use the height and crown area from my file in the model? I have tried a few things but it seems that you assume that there is a fixed foliage crown factor for every tree, so that is the same for every tree? I would therefore like to use my own calculated crowns, because a fixed factor is out of the question. Is that possible?
