Environmental Data-Driven Design for the Management of Climate-Adaptive Environmental Design Processes of the Built Environment
Technological and environmental design for climate adaptation in urban areas, today cannot be separated from the generation, collection and use of data (big data) and the use of ICT tools for the modelling and simulation of the built urban environment, identified as measuring devices and for the knowledge of the impacts of climate change on buildings and open spaces. The integration of low and smart enabling technologies and ICT tools dedicated to design practice, which increasingly upstream define the role of technical information as the cornerstone of an assisted decision-making model, direct information, therefore the idea, in a conception of design practices increasingly based on an approach environmental data-driven.
The object of the study is the definition of a framework for the evaluation of environmental parameters related to health and comfort, applicable to simulation tools, with a specific focus on thermal and environmental exchanges for the definition of those factors that condition the perception of the user’s well-being in conditions of thermal stress (eg. heatwaves), both indoor and outdoor.
Through the introduction of smart technologies within data exchange and simulation processes with ICT tools (Rhino, Grasshopper+LadyBug+Honeybee+Dragonfly, EnergyPlus, ENVI-met), such as sensors connected to hardware platforms (Raspberry Pi) for site-specific environmental and microclimatic monitoring, the aim is to optimize and get closer real conditions as results obtainable from processes of simulation of the energy behavior of buildings and the environmental performance of open spaces. Particular reference is given to the increase in urban temperatures, and the simulation of the interaction between outdoor and indoor performance, also through the administration of a daily survey for the collection of perceived thermal sensations, to confirm the validity of the data obtainable to design experimentation of climate-adaptive urban regeneration.
