Presentations and Minutes

TOP 1: Welcome Address from the organisers Prof. Thomas H. Kolbe (TU Munich) Presentation: Structuring Information Framework Current research projects taking place at TUM that are closely related to EnergyADE development: Linking sensors and city models Development of the Dynamics part of CityGML 3.0 Building a General Indicator Modelling (GIM) and how it can help in understanding building compositions and estimating heat energy demands Demonstration of the Web-Client in visualising 3D City Models and how it can be used for heat energy estimation

TOP 3: Dissemination activities EnergyADE development has been introduced at the Munich School of Engineering (2015) as an abstract paper. A presentation was given by Mostafa Elfouly demonstrating the different working groups and the activities in each. Romain Nouvel presented the EnergyADE and its development at the WorldGeoForum (2015) Silvia Coccolo & Jerome Kämpf presented the EnergyADE in the course of their work at CISBAT (2015) entitled Urban energy simulation of the EPFL Campus in Fribourg using a new paradigm: the CITYGML application domain extension energy Romain Nouvel et al. also presented EnergyADE work at CISBAT (2015) entitled Genesis of the CityGML Energy ADE A discussion has been held on how to use the Wiki for external communication and if we are supposed to make all the pages accessible (The discussion was postponed to topic 3). Romain Nouvel showed and template for how to open an issue and request of change. How to raise an Issue was discussed in details and the following management process was agreed on: Open the Issue Specify repository, inform about labels Check by requested people (TC or WG) Request for milestone v.0.6 TC or WG shall validate the issue The issue created is the one supposed to close the issue ACTION (development committee): A couple of suggestions were raised that it might be helpful if Olivier Tournaire (or someone from the development committee) can provide a tutorial for using the Github Piergiorgio Cipriano suggested having a tutorial Video to demonstrate how to use Github.

TOP 4: Around XML Schema Olivier Tournaire How to use the Github platform Website structure has been discussed: Wiki for dissemination Github for internal discussion Calling for making the Github platform totally accessible to non-registered. Pros: Get new fresh out of the box ideas Outreach and spread the word Cons: It will consume sometime to filter the ideas and make sure that it can really have a positive impact in the EnergyADE development A vote has been held with 20 Yes's and 1 No. It has been decided to make the Wiki accessible and linking it to the Github platform. Interested users is to contact Olivier Tournaire (or one of the development committee) to get an access for the Github. ACTION (development committee): Make the wiki clearer and fancier in order to improve the external communication ACTION (Egbert Casper): Propose some ideas for improving the wiki interface ACTION (Olivier Tournaire): Check if we can open the WGs without the development branch on the GItHub Current research projects taking place at TUM that are closely related to EnergyADE development: Linking sensors and city models Development of the Dynamics part of CityGML 3.0 Building a General Indicator Modelling (GIM) and how it can help in understanding building compositions and estimating heat energy demands Demonstration of the Web-Client in visualising 3D City Models and how it can be used for heat energy estimation

TOP 5: Work realised in WG Occupancy Jean-Marie Bahu & Piergiorgio Cipriano (EIFER, Sinergis) Presentation: EnergyADE Occupancy Jean-Marie & Piergiorgio discussed the organisation of the WG, activites, request of changes for the EnergyADE v0.6, and what they have tackled within the last 6 months. Piergiorgio demonstrated the usage of INSPIRE codelists. Raised Issues: Should we use stick to CityGML codelist or INSPIRE codelist Should we use the INSPIRE registery Where to put the number of watt per person Giving that building is a system, then windows are systems also? CityGML data availability and data availability in general Codelist or enumeration? IFC specifications are available online CityGML data can be found at the CityGML official website ACTION (KIT): Send link schema for OBXML to Occupancy WG ACTION (KIT): Provide construction types ACTION (EPFL): Provide time series and systems ACTION(Occupancy, JMB, EM): Provide occupancy profiles ISSUE(Occupancy): Specify the description of the Internal Gains into the documentation table and the md file ISSUE(Occupancy): Improve the documentation and guidelines ISSUE(Occupancy): Stick to the CItyGML codelist or INSPIRE codelist? Should we use the INSPIRE registery? Current research projects taking place at TUM that are closely related to EnergyADE development: Linking sensors and city models Development of the Dynamics part of CityGML 3.0 Building a General Indicator Modelling (GIM) and how it can help in understanding building compositions and estimating heat energy demands Demonstration of the Web-Client in visualising 3D City Models and how it can be used for heat energy estimation

TOP 6: Implementation of Energy ADE in Software CitySIM Jerome Kämpf & Silvia Coccolo (EPFL) Presentation: Implementation of Energy ADE in CitySim Presentation: Concrete application case of CitySim Concrete application cases of CitySIM How to connect urban simulation tool CitySIM and CityGML Energy ADE (Methodology) Case study: The EPFL Campus in Luasanne

TOP 7: Implementation of Energy ADE in EnEff Campus: RoadMap Mark-Alexander Brüntjen & Christian Fliegner (RWTH Aachen) Presentation: Implementation of Energy ADE in CitySim Concrete application case of EnEff Campus Project

TOP 8: Implementation of Energy ADE in SimStadt: An Energy ADE Plugin for CityDoctor Marcel Bruse (HFT Stuttgart - Geoinformatics) Presentation: Energy ADE Support for SimStadt Concrete application case of SimStadt

TOP 9: Typological Issues around the ThermalZone Implementation Prof. Volker Coors (HFT Stuttgart - Geoinformatics) Presentation: Energy ADE Support for SimStadt Relations between AbstractBuilding <> ThermalZone <> ThermalBoundarySurface <> SurfaceComponent Adjacency Concept/Specifications -> ThermalBoundary needs geometry for validation purposes (optional) (Karl-Heinz)

TOP 10: Work realised in WG ADE Core + Construction

TOP 11: Roadmap toward Energy v1.0 Before Energy ADE 1.0 More test cases is to be provided Occupancy Profiles -> Occupancy WG, Jean-Marie and EM? TimeSeries + System: EPFL ThermalZone: HFT TODO (Romain & Mostafa): Romain Nouvel, Mostafa Elfouly & Kanishk Chaturvedi from TUM will check the Schedules and TimeSeries and its conformity to the development of the dynamics part of CityGML 3.0 in order to avoid any overlap (some features seem to be very similar) TODO (KIT): provide construction types TODO (EPFL): provide time series and systems TODO (Occupancy WG, Jean-Marie and EM?): provide occupancy profiles

TOP 12: Planning of Next steps OGC TC Meeting in Sydney -> Energy ADE development work was presented by Prof. Volker Coors on the 02.12.2015 at the OGC TC Meeting in Sydney via online conf. Further process proposed for the ADE development into the OGC Maintain good visibility by regular attendance at the OGC TC Meetings (in the 3DIM or Energy DWG) Discussion paper Best Practice paper Version 1.0 as standard ->Open question: What is our final objective: CityGML 3.0? Best practice? Use Case There is a need for more documentation into the guidelines (e.g. definition of internal gains: solar + devices + occupants?) There is a need for providing a list of use cases from the WS in best practice paper TODO (All WGs): Complete the guidelines per WGs and check the mandatory or optional attributes TODO (All WGs): Use existing materials (guidelines, WS use cases, UML) for writing a use case: questions + solving process + illustration/visualisation + follow UML schema Mailing List Provide different mailing lists: Global & WG-specific ones TODO (Egbert Casper): Provide list of possible solutions Dissemination Activities till next workshop Silvia Coccolo et al. is to present the EnergyADE at the 14th International Conference of the International Building Performance Simulation Association, BS 2015, entitled Urban energy simulation based on a new data model paradigm: the CityGML Application Domain Extension Energy. A case study in the EPFL campus of Lausanne. Next Meeting Organized in June 2016. Location: Vienna Contact Person: Giorgio Aguiaro -> Giorgio will setup a doodle for next WS keeping in mind the public holidays
