Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
• An AutoML approach refines the WUDAPT framework with locally optimized LCZ maps. • The method delivers higher LCZ classification accuracy than the WUDAPT LCZ Generator. • Locally optimized LCZ maps improve Greater Manchester (GM) climate simulations. • Optimized LCZ-based simulation in GM reveals 1.8M extra person-hours of heat stress.
