Based on historical data concerning operation of district heating (and maybe heat pumps) in houses, offices, factories, stores and similar, this project aims to estimate various properties (such as size, insulation level, occupancy patterns, etc.) of the building.

Understanding the effect of other factors, such as geographical location, on the operation is also of interest.

An important aspect of the project will be to find similarities and differences between different installations, based on the time-series data describing their operation.

The work will be based on data provided by HEM & Öresundskraft companies, within SeMI project.
