🕒 11 AM (UTC +02:00)

This webinar will explore these issues by assessing pedestrian wind comfort using UrbaWind®, our advanced CFD-based simulation software. You will discover how microclimatic modelling can guide urban planning choices, improve outdoor comfort and meet regulatory requirements.

The session will cover practical methods, comfort criteria and real-life case studies. The full programme is available below.
