Vegetation fraction (Heat Overlay)

The vegetation fraction is an attribute used by the Heat Overlay. The vegetation fraction is the amount of vegetation per square meter. The vegetation fraction is currently obtained as an attribute from these items:

• Functions: The function value GREEN_M2, which represents the same thing;
• Terrains: The terrain attribute VEGETATION_FRACTION.

Note

• As seen above it cannot be overwritten by Areas.
