Summary | Visualizing of urban climate such as wind flow and temperature distribution in urban area is important for environmental city planning. Urban environmental climate maps have been developed in order to be used for city planning in many areas. This study deals with the standardization of making the urban environmental climate maps for urban heat island (UHI) countermeasures in order to be applied for city planning in municipalities affected by UHI, mainly in cities designated by ordinance. |
