Role in the Project
1. Urban geometry reconstruction as well as wind simulations that include uncertainties related to meteorological conditions for inflow and stratification of the atmosphere.
2. Development of behavioural models in relation to adaptation to heat and the impact of those behaviour on air quality.
3. enario-based decision support and explainability.
4. Coordination of the UrbanAIR project.
