Net Zero Heat Open Day: Great Britain Buildings Quality and Condition Model and introducing BESS - Built Environment Scanning System As part of Innovate UK's Net Zero Heat programme focused on Data Driven Decarbonisation, we're excited to spotlight an ambitious project led by xRI, driving faster decarbonisation of buildings. This project leverages data-driven approaches, including: 🔹 Built Environment Scanning System (BESS): A vehicle-based sensing platform for detecting building features and defects through machine vision and machine learning, streamlining decision-making for building portfolios. 🔹 Standardised IoT infrastructure for consistent data collection, enabling enhanced collaboration across the industry. 🔹 Robust training data to support future data modelling and AI applications. The flagship element of this project is the BESS, a vehicle-based sensing platform tuned to detect building features and defects. BESS enables automation of defect detection through machine vision and machine learning to assist with placed-based and building portfolio decision-making. 📅 Net Zero Heat Open Day – 09:00 - 12:30, 3 October 2024 🔗 Register here: https://ow.ly/wss550TkQ8C For an introduction to BESS, check out this article: https://ow.ly/epPI50TkQ8B #NZHeat #retrofit #NetZeroBuildings #sustainability #netzero #energy
