Arrange Vegetation
Different data sources can assist in the strategic arrangement of vegetation:
-
Solar Mitigation: Combining yearly and monthly solar energy data with filters like Close to Terrain and Close to Project helps identify optimal positions for vegetation. This placement contributes to microclimate mitigation, reducing excessive summer heat on and around buildings.
-
Acoustic Buffering: Traffic noise layers can guide the distribution of vegetation to act as natural sound barriers, effectively reducing noise nuisance.
-
Growth & Viability: In highly shaded conditions, solar data allows you to verify that planned vegetation will receive the necessary direct sunlight to sustain itself throughout the year.
