Italian tabula archetypes integration #735

Open piotre13 opened 1 year ago

piotre13 commented 1 year ago

I'm using teaser to extract simplified RC model in modelica for a set of buildings. For now I'm extracting residential single family units using tthe data from tabula de/dk. I've seen the structure of your code and i can guess that integrating a new set of data from tabula italy (at least for a specific building type) could be possible. I was wondering if you can provide a brief bullet list specifying the scripts that should need modifications if we want to integrate italian standards. In addition a brief description of how the json file in input data are created should be helpful. Thanks a lot for your work and for teh attention

Hi @piotre13 I'm not sure if this is still an issue you want to address. I recently had a look into what's necessary for adding new TABULA sets for issue #743 . There is very little change needed in the scripts and I'd be happy to assist with the question. The json file in the input data is however very cumbersome to create and risky regarding data errors if done manually (like I did for just 5 archetype buildings for eastern Germany). You need to add every envelope element (OuterWall, Rooftop, GroundFloor, Window, Door) three times (standard, retrofit, adv_retrofit) plus the three InnerWall, Floor, Ceiling elements for each construction period. I strongly recommend to automate the process somehow, i.e. let some script write the json file for you.
