 The impact of vegetation on the microclimate is only one side of the story. To grow and live, plants also need adequate local climate conditions fitting to their individual demand profile. Too much or too little sun, to heavy wind loads on the trees or stagnating air: Many aspects of the microclimate can interfere with the plants requirements and hinder a healthy and robust growth. Using our TreePass technology, the local growing conditions and the plants profiles can be matched to provide an optimal placement. Our wind risk assessment simulates the tree mechanics in order to assess the risk of wind and storm damage depending on the crown structure and the tree location. (TreePass Module to-come).  The impact of vegetation on the microclimate is only one side of the story.

 ** Full 3D building geometry & Single walls** ** Full 3D building geometry & Single walls**
-Complex buildings and other structures can be constructed in full 3D with no limitations in complexity as far as the cubic base structure allows. This allows the simulation of semi-open spaces such as the soccer stadium shown in the icon and in this example. Moreover, ENVI-met Expert allows the usage of single thin walls that can be applied to any grid which can be used to represent spaces wich are enclosed by walls but do not behave like a building e.g. bus stop shelters, shading structures...+Complex buildings and other structures can be constructed in full 3D with no limitations in complexity as far as the cubic base structure allows.

-ENVI-met Expert allows a detailed simulation of the energy and vapour exchange processes take place at green walls and green roof tops. The //Green Wall System// (GWS) integrates seamlessly into the dynamic calculation of the building energy performance and the facade/ wall temperature and supports a wide range of different systems from simple climbing plants up to living wall systems.+ENVI-met allows a detailed simulation of the energy and vapour exchange processes take place at green walls and green roof tops.
