Project description

Urban sunlight and greenery are critical aspects that significantly affect humans’ quality of life. However, methods for fine-grained spatial-temporal modelling of such information are still missing. We aim to propose methods for modelling street-level urban sunlight and greenery, making use of Streetview images, 3D city models, POI data, and weather data. Applications in healthcare and mobility studies will be explored.
