From Linked Building Data Community Group
- Knowledge-based modelling of integrated EeB technologies and measures, optimally integrating these EeB design solutions, and validating the whole lifecycle energy performance during the design stage
- Provide the multidisciplinary design teams with advanced design tools by improving the open interoperability between Building Information Modelling (BIM) and Geographical Information System (GIS) in a Semantic Web (SW) environment, and by enabling model-based analysis of the energy performance.
- Effectively manage information flow, knowledge integration, communication and decision-making in the participatory semantics-driven design process according to the principles of Integrated Project Delivery (IPD).
- Stakeholders: Building/Facility Owner, Architect, Energy Manager/Auditor, Engineer HVAC
- Requirements:
- Client requirements (specific requirements for hospital design) and other constraints (location, max. dimensions, ..)
- Data of the existing building (in case of retrofitting)
- Data on district level (energy relevant data of buildings within the district)
- Enable to link data from different data sources (in particular BIM and GIS)
- Capture design rules to assist the design team in transferring client requirements into energy efficient design.
- Expand building design to district level
