Heat Stress Overlay

We are working on a new heat module in accordance to the new Dutch DPRA standards. This module is still under construction, as is the documentation, however a Beta version of the module is available on the Preview server for our partners.

Models

One of two calculation models can be selected for overlay:

• Unesco Heat stress model. This model generates a simple heat stress overlay which visualizes the PET Relative result type.
• DPRA Heat stress model. This model can output all available result types;

Heat is calculated in accordance to the Dutch standard for heat stress: https://ruimtelijkeadaptatie.nl/stresstest/bijsluiter/hitte/ For more detailed implementation we used RIVM-documentation: https://www.rivm.nl/bibliotheek/rapporten/2019-0008.pdf

Configuration

For the model attributes, see Heat model attributes.

Results

With a Heat Overlay, one can generate different kinds of results. For further information about these outcomes, see result types.

Notes

• The Heat overlay in the Climate Game uses the UNESCO Heat stress model.
