SUEWS v2016a release workbook: SUEWS_SiteInfo18_Lo.xlsmLater compilation

Where: Original database.xlsx Profiles rows 60240006 and 60240007

The original workbook at commit 053c004^ stores weekday hours 06:00-17:00 and weekend hours 07:00-17:00, with Helsinki, Finland, Snow removed daytime and Ref 90240015 on both rows. The linked pre-migration YAML is the row-for-row public transcript preserved by commit 053c004.

SUEWS v2016a release workbook: SUEWS_SiteInfo18_Lo.xlsmLater compilation

Where: SUEWS v2016a profile code 1

Code 1 preserves the exact weekday vector and labels it Helsinki Snow removal.

Where: SUEWS v2017a profile code 1

Code 1 again preserves the weekday vector and Helsinki Snow removal label. Neither release table carries a distinct weekend row, so the original workbook remains the evidence for that row.

Development of the Surface Urban Energy and Water Balance Scheme (SUEWS) for cold climate citiesValidation

Where: Sect. 2.1.2, snow transport, p. 1695

Describes transport above a snow-water-equivalent limit at the next site-specific clearing time and notes that clearing practices are neighbourhood-specific; it publishes no 24-hour schedule.

Assessment findings

Namesupported
Archived Helsinki daytime snow-removal schedule identifies the retained weekday and weekend configuration without presenting Järvi et al. (2014) as the publication of either hourly series.
issue #197
Targetsupported
The legacy workbook classifies both rows as Snow removal profiles, and the archived SUEWS profile table preserves the weekday series under the label Helsinki Snow removal.
Valuessupported
Profiles rows 60240006 and 60240007 preserve the exact weekday 06:00-17:00 and weekend 07:00-17:00 switching schedules. The v2016a and v2017a SUEWS profile tables independently preserve the weekday vector as code 1; no value is changed.
Sourcesupported
Unreferenced is correct because the schedules are traceable to an archived application configuration, while Järvi et al. (2014) does not publish either hourly series. source_legacy_ref 90240015 preserves the historical application-paper link without exporting it as parameter provenance.
issue #197
Placesupported
Helsinki is explicitly recorded on both workbook rows and in the archived SUEWS label. It identifies the intended application configuration, not a measured citywide clearing timetable.
Representativenesssupported
City limits the catalogue entry to its labelled Helsinki application scope. It does not claim empirical representativeness across Helsinki or transferability to another city.
Methodsupported
Assumed records two configured on/off schedules. The archive and article provide no measurement, fit or calculation that produced the selected hours.
issue #197
Identitysupported
Legacy IDs 60240006 and 60240007 map exactly to the weekday and weekend rows under one Helsinki Snow removed daytime identity. The stable path and origin remain unchanged.

Scientific note

The complete two-row configuration is recoverable from the original database workbook: weekday clearing is active from 06:00 through 17:00 and weekend clearing from 07:00 through 17:00. Archived v2016a and v2017a SUEWS profile tables corroborate the weekday vector and Helsinki label. Järvi et al. (2014) explains the threshold-triggered, site-specific clearing process but does not publish either schedule. The database therefore retains the exact pair as an assumed Helsinki application configuration, uses unreferenced to avoid false publication attribution, and preserves legacy source ID 90240015 only as lineage. No value, stable path, origin or legacy ID is changed.
