Fills albedo. The record declares target land_cover.bldgs, name 'Central London', place london, representativeness site, applicable_scale land_cover, source ward2016 and method fitted.
Fills emissivity. The record declares target land_cover.bldgs, name 'Building', place generic, representativeness generic, applicable_scale land_cover, source jarvi2011 and method literature.
Fills water_storage. The stable Helsinki-path record declares target land_cover.bldgs, name Building, place generic, representativeness generic, applicable_scale land_cover, source jarvi2011 and method literature. Its Helsinki origin preserves migration/application lineage; the value is published as a generic Building parameter.
Fills drainage. The record declares target land_cover.bldgs, name 'Building', place generic, representativeness generic and applicable_scale land_cover.
Fills construction. The record declares target construction, name 'Traditional Stone Neighbourhood City, late 1800s-early 1900s', place gothenburg, origin 'Gothenburg, Sweden', representativeness city and source bjork2002, and its wall stack carries records/materials/generic--hertwig2024a--brick-protected at 0.29 m.
Fills snow_lim_patch. The stable path and origin retain Helsinki migration lineage, while the record declares target land_cover.bldgs, name 'Buildings', place generic, representativeness generic, applicable_scale land_cover, source jarvi2014 and method literature, and carries snowpack_limit. It is the only buildings snowpack_limit record in the database.
Fills the summer_wet, summer_dry, winter_wet and winter_dry ohm slots. The record declares target ohm_coefficients, name 'Roof (own for SMEAR III, Helsinki) [750]', place helsinki, representativeness city, source unreferenced and method calculated, and carries no season_label.
| Composite identity | supported The name field of the composite reads 'City centre ', with a trailing space, its place field reads helsinki and its origin field Helsinki, so together with the entry path archetypes/surfaces/bldgs/helsinki--city-centre the label identifies a Helsinki city-centre building typology. The trailing space is cosmetic and does not impair identification; it is shared with archetypes/surfaces/bldgs/beijing--city-centre and with no other buildings archetype. |
|---|---|
| Composite target | supported The composite declares target land_cover.bldgs, which agrees with its position under archetypes/surfaces/bldgs. The albedo, emissivity, water_storage, drainage and snow_lim_patch slots each take a record declaring target land_cover.bldgs; the construction slot takes a record declaring target construction; and the four ohm slots take a record declaring target ohm_coefficients. records/ohm/helsinki--jarvi2014--buildings declares no season_label and no wet or dry distinction, so filling summer_wet, summer_dry, winter_wet and winter_dry with the one record is the only mapping its content supports. None of these records declares attaches_to, which in this database appears only on the profile and snow-profile records, so the SUEWS field each slot writes is fixed by the slot name alone and cannot be cross-checked against the component. |
| Own parameter values | not applicable The composite declares no parameters block, so it overrides no component value. |
| Composition rationale | not applicable The composite claims no composition source, and the repository records no published rationale for assembling these particular records into a Helsinki city centre. The sources of the components belong to their own evidence assessments, not to this review. |
| Place applicability | supported The composite claims place helsinki. One component is a Helsinki row, OHM. Emissivity, water storage, drainage and snow_lim_patch are generic. Albedo declares place london and construction place gothenburg; both transfers remain forced by the available record set. |
| Representativeness | curation required The composite is classed city. Construction and OHM declare city; emissivity, water storage, drainage and snow_lim_patch declare generic; and the Central London albedo declares site. The site-scale albedo is narrower than the city reach claimed by the composite. The OHM record is classed city but its name still identifies one measurement site, a question for that record's evidence assessment. |
| Slot and season mapping | supported An assembly of existing records into slots; the composite produces no value of its own. |
| Completeness and uniqueness | curation required All seven slots are filled, and the four ohm slots take one record, which is consistent with records/ohm/helsinki--jarvi2014--buildings declaring no season_label. The composite is not unique. archetypes/surfaces/bldgs/sweden--stone-houses-traditional-neighbourhood carries a uses block identical to this one, reference for reference, and a sweep of every archetype in the repository that carries a uses block finds these two to be the only exact pair among the fourteen buildings archetypes. They differ only in name, in place, helsinki against sweden, and in representativeness, city against regional. The same seven records are therefore published twice under two different place and scale claims, and a maintainer must decide whether both should exist and, if so, what distinguishes them. |
On selection this composite is the strongest of the buildings family. One of its seven components is a Helsinki row, OHM; emissivity, water storage, drainage and snowpack_limit are generic; albedo and construction are the two place transfers. Those transfers are forced rather than careless: the database holds no Finnish buildings albedo record and no Finnish construction record, so a Central London albedo and a Gothenburg masonry perimeter block are the closest available stand-ins, and both are declared plainly in the components. Two components are city, four are generic and the London albedo is site evidence, so the site albedo is stretched beyond the city reach claimed by the composite. The four ohm slots correctly take one record because that record declares no season. What also needs a maintainer is identity. archetypes/surfaces/bldgs/sweden--stone-houses-traditional-neighbourhood holds an identical uses block, so the same seven records are published as both a Helsinki city typology and a Sweden-wide regional one, and either one of those two claims is wrong or the two entries must be reconciled. Two further points a later reader should not have to rediscover. records/ohm/helsinki--jarvi2014--buildings is a calculated mean of earlier roof records and therefore uses source unreferenced; its Järvi 2014 path remains a stable legacy identity rather than a source claim. The emissivity row declares source jarvi2011, while the snowpack-limit row declares source jarvi2014. And this city-scale composite is the buildings default for two region archetypes, western Europe and northern Europe, which stretches one Helsinki city centre across a continent. This review does not revisit any component value.
