This technology provides a comprehensive analysis of urban environments, predicting temperature, humidity, wind, and pollutants through numerical simulations and field measurements. It evaluates the impact of global warming on future outdoor environments and heatstroke risks at various scales, from national to individual buildings. The method quantifies how urban design, including building layouts and green spaces, affects resilience to heat, typhoons, and floods. Its practical application lies in assessing the pros and cons of urban planning decisions, offering data for informed choices on heat mitigation and disaster preparedness strategies. This tool aids in creating sustainable cities by understanding and improving their physical environments.
