Abstract

Due to the transition from fossil energy carriers to more renewable energy resources, the availability of energy in future will be fluctuating. Under these conditions, an accurate energy demand simulation for buildings is strongly needed as planning instrument on district or city level. This paper introduces a new data model for the energy relevant properties of buildings. It extends the existing standard CityGML for 3D city models by energy relevant properties like, e.g., physical materials, thermal zones and thermal boundaries, and building occupant's behaviour. The energy extension of CityGML is designed as system-independent interface to energy simulation systems and shall support detailed simulation on the level of single buildings as well as energy demand assessments on district and city level.
