Modelling wind-driven rain on buildings in urbanized area using 3-D GIS and LiDAR datasets

Luca Rossi, François Golay, Sylvain Coutu, Claudio Magalhaes Carneiro, Pauline Emery, Vera Wyrsch

This study investigated the distribution of the fraction of rainfall intercepted by the facades of buildings located in an urbanized area. We used the frequently used semi-empirical standard ISO-15927-3 to simulate Wind-Driven Rain on facades. The implemen ...

Assessing Digital Surface Models by Verifying Shadows: A Sensor Network Approach

Martin Vetterli, François Golay, Claudio Magalhaes Carneiro, Mina Karzand

We propose to use wireless sensor networks to assess the accuracy and application of Digital Surface Models (DSM) for the study of shadowing and solar radiation over the built environment. Using the ability of sensor network data to provide information abo ...
