Visualising the environmental conditions of buildings

This paper describes a software application that visualises environmental data from post-occupancy evaluation surveys. Such surveys are increasingly common but the data are rarely meaningful to non-experts. The software aims to address this by providing static and dynamic visualisation of data in a building context. The paper provides the rationale for the software and technical information with regard to its development. It describes the software's use in three projects: a small UK housing development, a large modular housing development in Mexico and a mixed-use university building in England. The paper concludes with future directions of the application and the potential for industry adoption on a larger scale.
