[column size=8] Officially opened in 2011, the Centre for Interactive Research on Sustainability (CIRS) at UBC was developed in response to the challenge of creating a more sustainable built environment. CIRS provides a case study to test decision-making frameworks and concepts, and through which further work can be undertaken in the field of sustainable design. The IDEASS team completed […]

[column size=8] IDEASS has developed a matrix, pictured here, for defining the problem space of future scenarios of data integration in the lifecycle of the built environment. The vertical axis articulates the scales at which the built environment is created (from the human scale of rooms at the top to the urban scale of cities […]

[column size=8] Canadian communities have set aggressive economic, environmental and social sustainability targets. Meeting these targets requires better, faster and less expensive ways of evaluating design options and tradeoffs against the most important performance measures (e.g., cost, energy consumption, quality of life). Co-Investigators Ronald Kellett and Dr. Maged Senbel have worked closely together to lead […]

[column size=8] In recent years, tools and frameworks have become prominent components in the measurement of existing and future urban conditions, and tools that effectively educate the diverse group of stakeholders involved in planning will elevate the needed policy changes to align future development with emissions reductions goals. IDEASS has been exploring collaborative and visualization components for […]

[column size=8] Subsequent to our November 2012 workshop, IDEASS worked with a team of graduate students in a Masters of Multimedia Design program in the Centre for Digital Media in Vancouver to develop a multi-media simulation of the neighbourhood scenario. This full term effort by six students and a faculty supervisor resulted in an interactive […]

[column size=8] Data, local or on the web, is more useful when combined with data from other sources. Co-investigator Dr. Rachel Pottinger has been leading an exploration on how to integrate data from the building scale (in ifcXML format) with data from campus and city level (in CityGML format). This has also involved needing to […]

[column size=8] The design and construction community has shown increasing interest in adopting building information models (BIMs). The richness of information provided by BIMs has the potential to streamline the design and construction processes by enabling enhanced communication, coordination, automation and analysis. The resulting models that are created during the design and construction phases are now […]

We are working to accelerate the rate at which sustainable, carbon-neutral buildings and communities become a norm, rather than an exception.
