Premium TMD: Flexible Data Management

Semantic layer: Flexible Indicator Calculation

Software Components Overview TMD Concerto Data TMD Concerto Data Semantic Layer CONCERTO Knowledge Base Default facts & rules Customized facts & rules Data Monitor Data Monitor Visualization Reasoner Interactive sandbox

TMD key data data nodes relationships

Building, Ref. Building, Area Relationships

Data Sheets and the TMD Integrity of relations depends on the quality of IDs and references in data sheets

More about data collection and data quality will be discussed in the workshop „Status quo of buildings, data and indicators first results“

Concerto Premium SL Functionalities Defines the meaning of data fields, e.g. how do different types of floor areas relate to building capacity. Defines the contexts in which indicator variables are calculated. Defines the indicator calculation formulas Performs indicator calculations Enables definition and management of customized calculation formulas

SL Example: Data Collection / Data Import Building kWh/(m²a) 10 kWh/(m²a)100 m²4 Building 2………… Building 3………… Building 1……… Building 2150 kWh/(m²a) 110 m²2 City 1 City 2 CONCERTO Premium Technical Monitoring Database …………Building m²10 kWh/(m²a)120 kWh/(m²a)Building 1 …………Building 3 …...Building m²150 kWh/(m²a)Building 2...

SL Example: Approximation Rules Customized Facts & Rules, City 1 Customized Facts & Rules, City 2 Default Facts & Rules A: Energy consumption for space heating and domestic hot water = Energy consumption for space heating + Energy consumption for domestic hot water B1: Approximated energy consumption for hot water = floor area * energy consumption for hot water/ floor area of a comparable building B2: Approximated energy consumption for hot water = #Occupants * energy consumption for hot water/ occupant of a building C: Buildings are comparable if the difference of the building floor areas is less than 20%

Example: Energy Consumption for Space Heating Goal: Comparison of building 1 and building 2 with respect to the space heating demand City 1, Building 1: –Energy consumption for space heating: 120 kWh/(m² a) –Energy consumption for hot water: 10 kWh/(m² a) –Floor area: 100 m² –Occupants: 4 City 2, Building 2: –Energy consumption for space heating and domestic hot water: 150 kWh/(m² a) –Floor area: 110 m² –Occupants: 2

User Groups and Roles Every Concereto participant: Web-based visualization interface –Target group specific visualization scenarios –Intelligent queries Search for Concerto objects in the TMD Perform indicator calculations Compare Concerto objects Energy, environmental and economical experts: –Access to user specific rules Add or modify their own version of selected rules Share the rules/knowledge with other Concerto experts –Access to TMD console Perform ad hoc queries on Concerto raw data

Rule sharing Manual for CONCERTO expert knowledge sharing Types of rules –Core rules –Indicator calculation rules Types of access management –Access per package. Packages are organized by projects and project sites –Access per category Valuable input: Feedback and discussion about customizable rules
