Table NA.B.1 — Terrain categories
|
Terrain category I Open lakes; Lakes with at least 5 km of open space downwind; smooth, flat land with no obstacles
Length of roughness z0 = 0,01 m Profile exponent α = 0,12 |
|
|
Terrain category II Terrain with hedgerows , singular farms, houses or trees, e.g. agricultural area
Length of roughness z0 = 0,05 m Profile exponent α = 0,16 |
|
|
Terrain category III Suburbs, Industrial zones or business parks; forests
Length of roughness z0 = 0,30 m Profile exponent α = 0,22 |
|
|
Terrain category IV Urban areas in which at least 15% of the area is occupied by buildings whose average height exceeds 15 m
Length of roughness z0 = 1,05 m Profile exponent α = 0,30 |
