Jae Hoon Jeong, Do‐Hyeun Kim · International Journal of Software Engineering and Its Applications · 2013
Recently, a few studies on context information for outdoor environments have been focused to collect phenomena data like a temperature, a humidity, etc. The importance of the former is increasingly recognized with changing environments and increase of heat stress in cities. In this paper we present an outdoor comfort index framework based on GIS for supporting context information instead of phenomena data in environments. We also present method for supporting comfort index and context information based on GIS in outdoor environments.
