Heat Stress Overlay
The new Heat Stress Overlay module is in accordance with the new Dutch DPRA standards.
Modules
In order to configure a Heat Stress Overlay, a module has to be selected. The module can be configured by opening the Heat Overlay Wizard.
The selectable modules are:
- DPRA Heat stress module. This module is more detailed and based on the new Dutch DPRA standards. It can generate multiple Heat 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 formula's to calculate Heat differences. It does not calculate the expected Physiological Equivalent Temperature.
Notes
- The Heat Stress overlay present in the Climategame uses the UNESCO Heat stress model.
