diFUME Urban Morphological and Roughness Indicators V0.1

Description:

Urban morphological and roughness indicators for Basel at 100 m resolution. The mean (zH), maximum (zHmax) and standard deviation (zHstd) of building height, the plan area index (pai - corresponding to the fraction of roof area), the frontal area index (fai - defining the area of building walls relative to total ground area), the roughness length (zo) and the zero-plane displacement height (zd) are calculated isotropically (i.e. all directions are integrated into one value for each parameter) for the study area using UMEP Morphometric Calculator. Roughness parameters (zo, zd) are calculated using the real urban surfaces parameterization of Kanda et al. (2013). The Digital Surface Model (V0.1) for buildings and terrain is used.
