SkyView Factor (SVF) in 27+ million positions in Nantes, France

GeoTIFF mapping depicts the sky view factor (SVF) of over 27 million locations within the perimeter of the ring road encircling Nantes, France. This openness indicator provides information on the potential of each open space to have radiative exchanges with the sky. As such, it is likely to inform urban planning policies, for instance, in terms of drainage measures for artificial soils or the identification of walking corridors.

The calculations were carried out using t4gpd (https://pypi.org/project/t4gpd/).
