Directional Wind Color Legend (Volumetric)

What is it measuring?

Average wind speeds at a location for a given season and wind direction

What does the scale mean?

The color scale indicates three types of zones; low, medium and high. These indicate a relative wind speed/intensity for a given area. The colors should not be taken as an absolute; they are meant to only indicate whether a specific location is expected to experience acceleration or deceleration of wind intensity.

The streamlines show how and where the wind flows around the buildings and space

What options can I specify?

None, this scale shows a relative flow and the plots are not seasonal nor scaled for climate data. Year-round conditions are used.
