The GIS Climate Simulation Gap
| Feature | Without infrared.city | With infrared.city |
|---|---|---|
| Running climate simulations from GIS data today means 4 manual steps. The infrared.city plugin collapses them all into one. | ||
| Source meteorological data | Manual | |
| CRS alignment | Manual | |
| Preprocess inputs | Manual | |
| Configure simulation | Manual | |
| Time to results | Hours of setup | Ready in minutes |
Native QGIS Plugin
Simulate wind comfort, solar radiation, and urban heat directly from your QGIS workspace. No file exports, no context switching — just results layered on top of your existing geodata.
- Wind speed
- Pedestrian wind comfort
- UTCI thermal comfort
- Heat stress & cold stress
- Solar radiation
- Daylight availability
- Sky view factor
- Direct sun hours
ArcGIS Integration
Connect infrared.city’s simulation engine to your ArcGIS workflows and spatial data. Analyse pedestrian-level climate conditions at the scale of entire neighbourhoods.
