Ideally, smart building technology allows data from all of these systems to be captured and analysed to afford better management. Sometimes […]
As building owners and facilities managers grapple with the task of keeping occupants safe in a post-COVID-19 world, one discipline that may provide answers is big data and analytics. Amber Keogh is Manager of Transformational Projects at Hendry, a leading built-form advisory firm, and also the keynote speaker at AIRAH’s Big Data and Analytics Forum, […]
The Australian Institute of Refrigeration, Air Conditioning and Heating (AIRAH) is inviting industry experts to submit proposals for sessions at the Outlook 2020 conference, the Big Data and Analytics Forum, and the Building Physics Forum. Outlook 2020 will take place in Sydney from November 8–10 and is AIRAH’s headline event for the year. It brings […]
Data analytics can reduce costs for building operators by providing more accurate measures of chiller and HVAC system performance. That was the message of Dr Troy Wilson, Affil.AIRAH, Chief Data Scientist at CIM Enviro and a Research Fellow at Macquarie University, when he presented at AIRAH’s Big Data and Analytics Forum earlier this month. Outdated standards? Currently, […]
