Notes

  • Foliage can be supplied in three ways:
    • As a Grid Overlay containing a tree height for each cell, configured as a prequel.
    • As Areas containing a FOLIAGE_HEIGHT attribute representing the tree height for the whole area.
    • As Functions containing a CROWN_FACTOR. An additional calculation is performed to generate the foliage heights.
  • Warning: The wind factor reduction is very susceptible to variation in foliage heights, leading to significant higher PET values in forested areas. It is advised that this prequel is smoothed with max and average techniques.
