Views Rather than Radiosity: A Study on Urban Cover View Factor Mapping and Utilization

Views Rather than Radiosity: A Study on Urban Cover View Factor Mapping and Utilization

Urban tree canopies are a vital component of green infrastructure, especially in the context of the accelerating urban heat island effect and global climate change. Quantifying urban canopy cover in relation to land use and land cover changes is therefore crucial. However, accurately evaluating visu...
