A method for using street view imagery to auto-extract window-to-wall ratios and its relevance for urban-level daylighting and energy simulations

Jakub T. Szczesniak et al.

Summary: Urban building energy and daylight modeling have been developing rapidly thanks to the availability of urban data sets. This paper proposes a methodology to automatically extract facade opening layouts and demonstrates its effectiveness through a comparison with manually determined parameters. The study in downtown Chicago reveals the significant impact of different window-to-wall ratios on daylighting and energy performance of buildings.

On the accuracy of Urban Building Energy Modelling

A. Oraiopoulos et al.

Summary: This paper presents a systematic analysis of urban building energy models and evaluates their accuracy using validated data. The results show that the accuracy of the models is multidimensional and no single key attribute determines it. The study emphasizes the importance of transparent and consistent reporting of accuracy and highlights the need for further research to improve model evaluation.
