Register today for SyracuseCoE’s November Research & Technology Forum, featuring speakers Paul Crovella and Shayan Mirzabeigi.

Buildings account for approximately 40% of annual greenhouse gas emissions in the United States. In New York State, approximately 80% of residential and commercial buildings were constructed before the emerging energy codes in the 1970s. Therefore, there is a significant need for affordable and scalable building retrofit solutions with low embodied emissions to meet the targets in the NYS Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act of 2019.

A building energy audit is the initial step to quantify a building’s energy performance and reveal its energy-saving potential. However, performing a high-level energy audit requires detailed field analysis and is often time-consuming and expensive. Digital solutions are needed to make different parts of the building assessment process affordable, efficient, and scalable. Professors Crovella and Mirzabeigi will discuss their research efforts to develop a drone-based technique that automates building envelope inspection procedures and collects data for developing semantic-rich models for retrofit design and verification.
