Short summary
We present palm_csd version 25.10, the current default preprocessing tool for generating the static input data for the building-resolving large-eddy simulation model PALM (Parallelized Large-eddy Simulation Model). This paper focuses on the processing of buildings, vegetation, pavement, water bodies, terrain height and land cover. We demonstrate the application of palm_csd using publicly available geodata for the city of Berlin (Germany). Common data inconsistencies and sources of uncertainty in urban geodata are discussed.
