Frequently asked questions
For each planning area, the Senate Department calculates how many square metres of green space near homes are available per resident within the catchment area. The benchmark is 6 square metres per person. Whether a planning area reaches or misses this value determines the category “high”, “moderate” or “low”.
Trees and larger green spaces lower the air temperature through shading and evaporation. Urban climate analyses show that densely built neighbourhoods with little vegetation stay measurably warmer on summer days than areas with comparable buildings and more greenery. The climate category on this map reflects that.
