In this research, a methodology for the estimation of electrical energy demand of buildings using a 30 city model is described. The idea of including al/ these data justifies the fact that today these models are fu// of geometric and semantic data, which could be applied in energetic demand forecasts. At the onset, basic concepts of geographic information systems and electrical energy are presented, following with the best selection method required for this kind of research Project.
Later, comprehensive tools for processing CityGML files are presented, including the methodology for the estimation of electrical energy demand, which ends with the presentation of a diagram of activities showing the best way to il/ustrate the resulting ideas. After that, the outcomes of an applied area of study used during its implementation stage are shown. The final part of this research paper is devoted to derived conclusions.
