Atmospheric Installation Interface

Environmental Data

Airscape / Atmospheric Reading Layer

A lighter environmental dashboard aligned with the motion interface language in the main page. The information remains visual, but now uses the same pastel atmosphere, mono typography, translucent panels and soft gradients as `simulation.html`.

A compass view makes the directional change feel closer to the main interface language.

Current density

68 µg/m³

Number, colored progress strip and curve work together to show severity.

Surface temperature

31.4°C

Temperature trend and humidity ring separate instant value from ambient retention.

The density chart stays visual, but now uses the same softened pastel palette as the main page.

Peak corridor

17:30 roadside build-up

Primary driver

Bus + private vehicle mix

Dispersion

Low in sheltered edges

Translation principle

Environmental data is translated into motion parameters so atmospheric conditions can directly shape the visual wave behaviour.

Instead of reading wind and pollution only as statistics, this layer explains how each environmental signal becomes a formal motion input inside the Airscape system.

Wind Speed

Controls the energy of the field and sets the baseline force of movement.

→

Wave Amplitude

Higher wind speed produces larger displacement and stronger visible oscillation.

Wind Direction

Determines the prevailing sweep and directional bias of the motion field.

→

Turbulence

Directional instability introduces local eddies, turning smooth flow into fluctuating turbulence.

Humidity + Heat Island

Moisture retention and urban heat accumulation increase lingering, layered atmospheric behaviour.

→

Wave Complexity

Higher retention produces denser, slower-decaying overlaps and more complex wave interference.

PM2.5 + Traffic Emissions

Particle concentration and roadside exhaust define the intensity of suspended matter in the urban air layer.

→

Pollution Density

Higher particle load increases the visual density, opacity and clustering of polluted regions.

Building Density

Urban mass changes how air is channelled, trapped or accelerated across the site.

→

Flow Constraint

Dense blocks compress the motion field and amplify localized variation in the wave pattern.

Core mapping logic

Wave Amplitude

Primarily driven by wind speed.

Turbulence

Driven by wind-direction variability and obstruction from dense urban form.

Wave Complexity

Driven by humidity, heat retention and the overlap of multiple atmospheric conditions.

Pollution Density

Driven by PM2.5 concentration, traffic emissions and weak ventilation pockets.

Why this matters

This logic turns environmental sensing into spatial motion behaviour, allowing users to understand invisible atmospheric conditions through visual movement.

System role

The panel acts like a lightweight doc: it clarifies how raw environmental inputs are converted into the motion parameters used by the main Airscape visualization.
