Overview

Innovative image-based method measures wind speed and direction in urban areas, suggesting new applications for climate studies.

Key Points

  • This research aims to develop a method for measuring wind speed and direction using video footage in urban environments.
  • Image-based method for extracting anemometric data from freely accessible videos
  • Motion extraction techniques to isolate moving elements
  • Optical flow algorithm estimates apparent velocity and converts it to wind speed in km/h.
  • Reliable estimates of wind speeds and directions validated against meteorological data
  • High-resolution measurements of wind dynamics at the canopy level
  • Innovative approach applicable for architectural design and climate studies.
