Heat stress mitigation actions must be carefully planned in order to achieve effective outcomes. By integrating urban planning guidelines with urban climate knowledge, substantial benefits can be achieved for the community. In Lisbon, the study area, urban planning guidelines are strict in relation to the tree species which should be used for plant...
Regarding the predisposition of individuals to change when confronted with future climate scenarios, it is necessary to understand the perception of the groups under analysis and how to engage with society to collectively act toward climate change mitigation. A question remains to be answered: how to ensure that people engage, participate, and gain...
Simulações microclimáticas de duas áreas críticas (Baixa e Alta de Lisboa): situação atual e projeções para o futuro com modificações no edificado.
Urban climate results from the modifications caused by the characteristics of cities, which modifies the regional climatic conditions of a city. When urban areas are warmer than the surrounding areas, the urban heat island (UHI) phenomenon occurs. Being a major phenomenon and a global topic of interest for all affected cities, there are already num...
Resumo: O crime é um evento dinâmico, distribuído segundo tendências espaciotemporais. Neste artigo implementa-se um processo de análise criminal para a cidade de Lisboa através do mapeamento e análise de ocorrências geolocalizadas. Através de Sistemas de Informação Geográfica (SIG) procura-se otimizar a identificação de padrões espaciotemporais, a...
Considering climate change and the rapid trend towards urbanization, the analysis of urban microclimates is gaining importance. Using a FLIR thermal camera, the temperatures of the facades of the buildings where identified and characterized. The technique that was used - infrared thermography, is emerging and increasingly used in fields such as con...

Hello everyone
I have a model of an area of Lisbon designed on Envi-met but the top of the model is close to the top of the buildings. When I try to add cells to the top of the model the program deletes all buildings from the model.
So I end up with a blank model in spaces.
I created this model using the Monde module and then exported it to the Spaces model. Then, in Spaces, I've only corrected small pieces of buildings that were incorrectly generated. Next, I tried to add the Z cells to the top of the model and it deletes everything.
Has this happened to anyone? Is there a solution?
Hello everyone
I'm using ENVI-met (version 4.3.1) and I have successfully run the model. However, when I see the outputs of my model, in the buildings folder I should have two folders: static and dynamic (I have seen the sample-results that are available in the ENVI-met web site: http://envi-met.info/doku.php?id=examples:urbanlayout#download_sample_results, and it should create the two).
Does anyone know why it only creates one of them? It's because I'm using the free version of ENVI-met? It's an error?
Thank you
I'm using ENVI-met version 4.3.0. I can see all the layers ENVI-met creates in Leonardo in 2d and in 3d.
However I thought it was possible to see, for example, the surface temperature of the walls but I can only see the albedo, the transmission and emissivity of the facades, etc. (see image).
Is it possible to see other layers on to the facades?
I'm currently using Envi-met (version 4.3.0) in my master thesis research. I've successfully run the model for 48h and when I use Leonardo I'm able to see all my results in the 2D map section. Although, when I try to use the 3D map section I can only see my buildings and vegetation in 3D. I'm not able to see, for example, the direct solar radiation on my facades. There is a section where I should be able to assign to my facades a layer, so I could see it in 3D, but it's inactive and so I can not use it.
Can anyone help with this question?
Thank you in advance for any help you can give me,
Márcia
