Reside: Representative Databases for Multi-criteria Decision Tool

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: RESIDE is a software that allows designers and decision-makers to simultaneously consider issues related to energy consumption for environmental conditioning and water heating, construction costs and public policies from the initial planning stages of residential developments. However, its use is conditional on the existence of a database for the context analyzed. Understanding the growing importance of addressing the innate complexity in sustainability-oriented design activities, this article presents a procedure to identify representative databases for the state of Minas Gerais, in order to enable the use of the RESIDE multi-criteria decision tool.
