> Title: Data Visualization at Urban Scale - NY Energy Consumption Map
>
> Bianca Howard, Ph.D Candidate, Sustainable Engineering Studio, Columbia
> University
>
> Bianca’s talk will discuss the methods behind estimating annual building
> energy consumption for New York City and the many iterations of visualizing
> this information. She will also discuss the analysis for estimating the
> potential for Combined Heat and Power at both the building and "microgrid"
> scales which illustrates how the building energy consumption estimates were
> utilized in her research.
>
> About the Speaker: Bianca Howard is currently a Ph.D. Candidate in
> mechanical engineering in the Sustainable Engineering Lab of Professor
> Vijay Modi at Columbia University. She is also a trainee in the National
> Science Foundation IGERT “Solving Urbanization Challenges Through Design”.
>
> Her research interests are in energy systems and evaluating various
> methods of reducing energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.
> Recently her work has been focused on the viability of combined heat and
> power in New York City as well as estimating emissions reductions from
> changes in the electricity load profile at the hourly time scale. The
> evaluation of combined heat and power at both the building and microgrid
> scale has its foundations in previous works of estimating building energy
> consumption for the 5 boroughs.
>
> Ms. Howard received her Bachelor’s of Science in Mechanical Engineering
> from the University of Nebraska in 2009 and her Master’s of Science in
> Mechanical Engineering from Columbia University in 2011.

> Title: CityEngine - GIS Based Data Visualization for Urban Scale
> Developments
>
> Patrick Gahagan, Solutions Engineer, ESRI, New York City
>
> Esri's procedural or rule-based modeling software City Engine allows
> design professionals to be creative and still meet sustainability goals.
>   City Engine delivers a full suite of industry-leading procedural tools to
> aggregate geospatial data, layout and edit street networks, generate and
> modify buildings, and analyze urban planning projects.
>
> Building Performance Simulation can be achieved in short order using City
> Engine and templates that are created by the City Engine team. The Redlands
> Redevelopment example is one of these templates and showcases an advanced
> set of analytical tools created in response to the growing need for
> measurable, performance-based design.
>
> This presentation will provide an introduction to the City Engine
> interface, and then focus on some of the eco-criteria and other performance
> targets included with the Redlands Redevelopment example.  The reports
> generated by City Engine on these performance targets provide instant
> feedback to the designer, and enables the rapid launch of community design
> and implementation strategies.
>
> About the Speaker: Patrick Gahagan is a Solutions Engineer for Esri based
> in New York City.  For many years he supported clients in NYC  government,
> but has always kept a specialty in 3D GIS.  Patrick now supports clients in
> the AEC and general 3D markets just about full time.   He was one of the
> early internal adopters of City Engine, and has become an unofficial east
> coast member of the 3D team at headquarters.
