Energy Data Visualization
This paper presents an integrated energy monitoring and visualization system aimed at supporting the development of Smart Green Cities. It outlines the design of a spatial information model that manages massive data using web-based platforms. The system provides real-time monitoring and visualization of energy usage at varying scales, utilizing location-based sensor data. With interfaces to Google Earth and Google Maps, this project introduces innovative middleware technologies and strategies that enhance user interaction and facilitate effective energy management.

Walz • Date: 2011
Key Words • Energy monitoring • Data visualization • Smart Green City • Spatial information model • EnerISS (Energy Integrated Urban Planning & Managing Support System) • Social sensing
Background • IoT, Web.o.t • Smart City(Sensor Networking/Senor Data) • Smart Grid • SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition)/ICS
Abstraction • U-Eco City is a research and development project initiated by the Korean government. • Objectives: monitoring and visualization of aggregated and real time states of various energy usages represented by location-based sensor data accrued from city to building scale. • Middleware: browser-based client • interfaces with the Google Earth and Google Maps plug-ins
EnerISS Architecture • Modeler: 3D Modeling, Transfer to Solver (by E-GIS) • Viewer-Solver: Energy Demand (by E-GIS & Spatial) • Viewer-Evaluator: Analyzes Strategies (by SEE) • Viewer-EMS: does interactions (Inside Viewer or SCADA) • 5 DBs for E-GIS, Spatial, SEE, SCADA, Sensors
Challenges & Characteristics • Real-World Challenge (Sensor Signal, Large Scale Data) • Functionality – Game Like (interface) • • Web based platform • • Intuitive statistical data visualization • • Real-time based sensor data collection and data aggregation • • Dynamic data loading and visualization • • Extensible city information • Energy Saving • CO2
Urban data structure model • The existing GIS system and diverse Building Information Model (BIM) technologies can represent the 3D geological environment • Pre-Made
Data optimization for 3D city representation • Modeler • Parametric Building • Google Earth Plugin • KML
Visualization strategy • easy-to-use interface and a suitable representation method • Color, Height, 3d Geometry, Alpha Value
Implementation – LODs • 4 LOD: Grid < Block < Building < Floor
Implementation – Middleware • Due to Web Base Requirement • Client Vis Comp & DB Comp Sensor & CIS
Implementation – Data Structures • Advantages: • 1. Strong Accurate • 2. More Kinds of Data • To enhance System performance and Information Visualization Method
Implementation – Addition • Large Data Treatment • Diversity Representations • Socials
