![](/files/-MihraPseK4s3oLXMF7i) - [\[source code\]](https://github.com/ladybug-tools/dragonfly-grasshopper/blob/master/dragonfly_grasshopper/src//DF%20UWG%20Simulation%20Parameter.py)

Create a simulation parameter object that carries a complete set of Urban Weather Genreator (UWG) simulation settings and can be plugged into the "DF Run Urban Weather Generator" component.

### Inputs

* **run\_period**

A Ladybug Analysis Period object to describe the time period over which to run the simulation. If None, the simulation will be run for the whole year.

* **timestep**

An integer for the number of timesteps per hour at which the calculation will be run. (Default: 12).

* **veg\_par**

A VegetationParameter object to specify the behavior of vegetation in the urban area. If None, generic vegetation parameters will be generated.

* **epw\_site**

A ReferenceEPWSite object to specify the properties of the reference site where the input rural EPW was recorded. If None, generic airport properties will be generated.

* **bnd\_layer**

A BoundaryLayerParameter to specify the properties of the urban boundary layer. If None, generic boundary layer parameters will be generated.

### Outputs

* **sim\_par**

A UWG SimulationParameter object that can be connected to the "DF Run Urban Weather Generator" component in order to specify UWG simulation settings

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.ladybug.tools/dragonfly-primer/components/6_alternativeweather/uwg_simulation_parameter.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
