DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Mapping vs geospatial analysis

Mapping Geospatial analysis

12

Acknowledges and explicitly

incorporates spatial relationships

between data and space

GIS data layers are collections of

related information that are linked

to specific geographic locations

DNV GL expert Geospatial

analysis explicitly and intentionally

incorporates spatial elements and

effects into the analysis so that

geographic changes are going to

impact the findings

Creates a representation and

approximation of a point polygon

etc in space

Maps of data can display one or

two dimensions of information at a

time

DNV GL expert I always

distinguished mapping as taking

analysis that really is done without

considering the spatial elements and

effects and then just using

addresses zip-codes

latitudelongitude etc to drop it

into a map (R Crowley)

In either case looking at data geospatially adds immediate insights to the information being conveyed

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Q What are the benefits of geospatial analysis

It makes LOCATION a

key factor in the

analysis

It can also serve as

the LINK across a wide

variety of disparate

data for organizing

Step 5 Application for Dominion Energy 2012-2016 as choropleth map

Problem Dominion Energy wanted to

visualize historic customer

participation and kWh savings in their

EE programs and areas of opportunity

Solution DNV GL used program

tracking data on participants to

develop densities of program activity

by county compared to show where

outreach efforts should be targeted

(more interestingly we showed

participation versus savings achieved)

Mapping tools used Tableau

reproduced in PowerBI and QGIS

50

Program participants

Areas of low participation but high savings per participant = High potential target areas

Residential Efficiency Program

Participation amp Savings by

County 2012-2017 cumulative

Step 6 Analysis

Plot geocoded data and shapefiles Spatial interpolation of sample data

61

Thiessen polygons

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Key takeawayshellip what did we do here

Obtained cleaned and geocoded address data rarr attributed longitude and latitude to buildings

Linked and mapped addresses to points on streets

Joined two related files back together with unique identifier key rarr Property ID and Record_ID

Displayed building locations on a map

Added features or attributes anything you are looking at to the plotted buildings rarr energy use

Discussed conceptually how to aggregate or add up data to a spatial unit to map

Discussed conceptually how to use a sample of data to estimate impacts over space

62

Aggregating or adding up data to a spatial unit (ie state county census tract etc) allows

spatial patterns to present themselves We can further analyse these patterns with statistics

It is our job to communicate in an easy to understand message to our respective audiences

64

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Aliant Agricultural EE Program

Problem Stalled participation levels in

agricultural program led utility to seek ways

to augment outreach efforts

Solution DNV GL analyzed data on program

activity from the tracking database and

compared against eligible customers by rate

codes to identify gaps Shows participation

rates for zip codes with at least 10 utility-

served farms Most zips with gt50 farms had

zero participation

GIS tools used Tableau

65

North Carolina Sustainable Energy Association

Problem ldquoTell me where clean energy is

in North Carolinardquo Where is there

potential for residential energy efficiency

upgrades to buildings

Solution Developed Energy Data Book

(Atlas) Took home counts built prior to

1970 (when no codes for insulation levels

existed) from ACS data and did

interpolation to regionally map the likely

density concentrations of residential

retrofit opportunities so that community

groups and weatherization entities knew

where to focus their efforts

GIS tools used Quantum GIS IDW ndash

using ArcGIS Spatial Interpolation toolset

66

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

New York City Housing Authority amp Hurricane Sandy

Problem Slow recovery efforts in

public housing pushed NYSERDA to

fund resiliency research

Solution DNV GL applied GIS to

identify high risk areas from storm

surges across the 5 boroughs of NYC

applied building resiliency tool B-

READY to rate NYCHA properties as

to their level of capability to

withstand climate events with focus

on energy amp building systems

GIS tools used An online tool was

developed in an ArcGISEsri

Panama Canal ndash system analysis

Problem The Panama Canal (PC) connects the Atlantic and

the Pacific oceans and is currently the worldrsquos major

shipping crossway for ocean-going ships it is transited

daily by nearly 40 ships Panama Canal Authority was

interested in conducting a climate change adaptation risk

analysis looking at the operability of the PC for navigational

purposes

Solution DNV GL applied its ADAPT model

ndash a risk-based framework for adaptation to climate change

ndash enables cost-benefits assessment of possible adaptation

strategies

ndash makes use of state-of-the-art climate models

ndash includes all major sources of uncertainty

GIS tools used A range of sea level rise databases and

tools used to model potential impact scenarios

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Amsterdam Citywide Resiliency Planning

Problem High risk for sea level

rise low cooperation among

government agenciesrsquo silos

Solution DNV GL facilitated

planning sessions with

demonstrative overlays of various

city infrastructure and how it could

be impacted

GIS tools used An online tool

was developed in an ArcGISEsri

environment for use by the City in

anticipating future events and

their potential impact on buildings

visualize historic customer

participation and kWh savings in their

EE programs and areas of opportunity

Solution DNV GL used program

tracking data on participants to

develop densities of program activity

by county compared to show where

outreach efforts should be targeted

(more interestingly we showed

participation versus savings achieved)

Mapping tools used Tableau

reproduced in PowerBI and QGIS

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Key takeawayshellip what did we do here

Obtained cleaned and geocoded address data rarr attributed longitude and latitude to buildings

Linked and mapped addresses to points on streets

Joined two related files back together with unique identifier key rarr Property ID and Record_ID

Displayed building locations on a map

Added features or attributes anything you are looking at to the plotted buildings rarr energy use

Discussed conceptually how to aggregate or add up data to a spatial unit to map

Discussed conceptually how to use a sample of data to estimate impacts over space

62

Aggregating or adding up data to a spatial unit (ie state county census tract etc) allows

spatial patterns to present themselves We can further analyse these patterns with statistics

It is our job to communicate in an easy to understand message to our respective audiences

Mapping vs geospatial analysis

Mapping Geospatial analysis

12

Acknowledges and explicitly

incorporates spatial relationships

between data and space

GIS data layers are collections of

related information that are linked

to specific geographic locations

DNV GL expert Geospatial

analysis explicitly and intentionally

incorporates spatial elements and

effects into the analysis so that

geographic changes are going to

impact the findings

Creates a representation and

approximation of a point polygon

etc in space

Maps of data can display one or

two dimensions of information at a

time

DNV GL expert I always

distinguished mapping as taking

analysis that really is done without

considering the spatial elements and

effects and then just using

addresses zip-codes

latitudelongitude etc to drop it

into a map (R Crowley)

In either case looking at data geospatially adds immediate insights to the information being conveyed

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Q What are the benefits of geospatial analysis

It makes LOCATION a

key factor in the

analysis

It can also serve as

the LINK across a wide

variety of disparate

data for organizing

your information

Mapping vs geospatial analysis

Mapping Geospatial analysis

12

Acknowledges and explicitly

incorporates spatial relationships

between data and space

GIS data layers are collections of

related information that are linked

to specific geographic locations

DNV GL expert Geospatial

analysis explicitly and intentionally

incorporates spatial elements and

effects into the analysis so that

geographic changes are going to

impact the findings

Creates a representation and

approximation of a point polygon

etc in space

Maps of data can display one or

two dimensions of information at a

time

DNV GL expert I always

distinguished mapping as taking

analysis that really is done without

considering the spatial elements and

effects and then just using

addresses zip-codes

latitudelongitude etc to drop it

into a map (R Crowley)

In either case looking at data geospatially adds immediate insights to the information being conveyed

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Q What are the benefits of geospatial analysis

It makes LOCATION a

key factor in the

analysis

It can also serve as

the LINK across a wide

variety of disparate

data for organizing

your information

Mapping vs geospatial analysis

Mapping Geospatial analysis

12

Acknowledges and explicitly

incorporates spatial relationships

between data and space

GIS data layers are collections of

related information that are linked

to specific geographic locations

DNV GL expert Geospatial

analysis explicitly and intentionally

incorporates spatial elements and

effects into the analysis so that

geographic changes are going to

impact the findings

Creates a representation and

approximation of a point polygon

etc in space

Maps of data can display one or

two dimensions of information at a

time

DNV GL expert I always

distinguished mapping as taking

analysis that really is done without

considering the spatial elements and

effects and then just using

addresses zip-codes

latitudelongitude etc to drop it

into a map (R Crowley)

In either case looking at data geospatially adds immediate insights to the information being conveyed

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

visualize historic customer

participation and kWh savings in their

EE programs and areas of opportunity

Solution DNV GL used program

tracking data on participants to

develop densities of program activity

by county compared to show where

outreach efforts should be targeted

(more interestingly we showed

participation versus savings achieved)

Mapping tools used Tableau

reproduced in PowerBI and QGIS

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Key takeawayshellip what did we do here

Obtained cleaned and geocoded address data rarr attributed longitude and latitude to buildings

Linked and mapped addresses to points on streets

Joined two related files back together with unique identifier key rarr Property ID and Record_ID

Displayed building locations on a map

Added features or attributes anything you are looking at to the plotted buildings rarr energy use

Discussed conceptually how to aggregate or add up data to a spatial unit to map

Discussed conceptually how to use a sample of data to estimate impacts over space

62

Aggregating or adding up data to a spatial unit (ie state county census tract etc) allows

spatial patterns to present themselves We can further analyse these patterns with statistics

It is our job to communicate in an easy to understand message to our respective audiences

visualize historic customer

participation and kWh savings in their

EE programs and areas of opportunity

Solution DNV GL used program

tracking data on participants to

develop densities of program activity

by county compared to show where

outreach efforts should be targeted

(more interestingly we showed

participation versus savings achieved)

Mapping tools used Tableau

reproduced in PowerBI and QGIS

Thiessen polygons

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Key takeawayshellip what did we do here

Obtained cleaned and geocoded address data rarr attributed longitude and latitude to buildings

Linked and mapped addresses to points on streets

Joined two related files back together with unique identifier key rarr Property ID and Record_ID

Displayed building locations on a map

Added features or attributes anything you are looking at to the plotted buildings rarr energy use

Discussed conceptually how to aggregate or add up data to a spatial unit to map

Discussed conceptually how to use a sample of data to estimate impacts over space

62

Aggregating or adding up data to a spatial unit (ie state county census tract etc) allows

spatial patterns to present themselves We can further analyse these patterns with statistics

It is our job to communicate in an easy to understand message to our respective audiences

Problem The Panama Canal (PC) connects the Atlantic and

the Pacific oceans and is currently the worldrsquos major

shipping crossway for ocean-going ships it is transited

daily by nearly 40 ships Panama Canal Authority was

interested in conducting a climate change adaptation risk

analysis looking at the operability of the PC for navigational

purposes

Solution DNV GL applied its ADAPT model

ndash a risk-based framework for adaptation to climate change

ndash enables cost-benefits assessment of possible adaptation

strategies

ndash makes use of state-of-the-art climate models

ndash includes all major sources of uncertainty

Mapping vs geospatial analysis

Mapping Geospatial analysis

12

Acknowledges and explicitly

incorporates spatial relationships

between data and space

GIS data layers are collections of

related information that are linked

to specific geographic locations

DNV GL expert Geospatial

analysis explicitly and intentionally

incorporates spatial elements and

effects into the analysis so that

geographic changes are going to

impact the findings

Creates a representation and

approximation of a point polygon

etc in space

Maps of data can display one or

two dimensions of information at a

time

DNV GL expert I always

distinguished mapping as taking

analysis that really is done without

considering the spatial elements and

effects and then just using

addresses zip-codes

latitudelongitude etc to drop it

into a map (R Crowley)

In either case looking at data geospatially adds immediate insights to the information being conveyed

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Q What are the benefits of geospatial analysis

It makes LOCATION a

key factor in the

analysis

It can also serve as

the LINK across a wide

variety of disparate

data for organizing

Geography 101 ndash Maps vs GIS

11

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Mapping vs geospatial analysis

Mapping Geospatial analysis

12

Acknowledges and explicitly

incorporates spatial relationships

between data and space

GIS data layers are collections of

related information that are linked

to specific geographic locations

DNV GL expert Geospatial

analysis explicitly and intentionally

incorporates spatial elements and

effects into the analysis so that

geographic changes are going to

impact the findings

Creates a representation and

approximation of a point polygon

etc in space

Maps of data can display one or

two dimensions of information at a

time

DNV GL expert I always

distinguished mapping as taking

analysis that really is done without

considering the spatial elements and

effects and then just using

addresses zip-codes

latitudelongitude etc to drop it

into a map (R Crowley)

In either case looking at data geospatially adds immediate insights to the information being conveyed

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Q What are the benefits of geospatial analysis

It makes LOCATION a

key factor in the

analysis

It can also serve as

the LINK across a wide

variety of disparate

data for organizing

your information

Identify where there are opportunities to save

Find areas or buildings vulnerable to climate events

Target marketing

Find out where and how people shop for major appliances

Anticipate best places to put EV charging stations

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Mapping vs geospatial analysis

Mapping Geospatial analysis

12

Acknowledges and explicitly

incorporates spatial relationships

between data and space

GIS data layers are collections of

related information that are linked

to specific geographic locations

DNV GL expert Geospatial

analysis explicitly and intentionally

incorporates spatial elements and

effects into the analysis so that

geographic changes are going to

impact the findings

Creates a representation and

approximation of a point polygon

etc in space

Maps of data can display one or

two dimensions of information at a

time

DNV GL expert I always

distinguished mapping as taking

analysis that really is done without

considering the spatial elements and

effects and then just using

addresses zip-codes

latitudelongitude etc to drop it

into a map (R Crowley)

In either case looking at data geospatially adds immediate insights to the information being conveyed

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Q What are the benefits of geospatial analysis

It makes LOCATION a

key factor in the

analysis

It can also serve as

the LINK across a wide

variety of disparate

data for organizing

by county compared to show where

outreach efforts should be targeted

(more interestingly we showed

participation versus savings achieved)

Mapping tools used Tableau

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Key takeawayshellip what did we do here

Obtained cleaned and geocoded address data rarr attributed longitude and latitude to buildings

Linked and mapped addresses to points on streets

Joined two related files back together with unique identifier key rarr Property ID and Record_ID

Displayed building locations on a map

Added features or attributes anything you are looking at to the plotted buildings rarr energy use

Discussed conceptually how to aggregate or add up data to a spatial unit to map

Discussed conceptually how to use a sample of data to estimate impacts over space

62

Aggregating or adding up data to a spatial unit (ie state county census tract etc) allows

spatial patterns to present themselves We can further analyse these patterns with statistics

It is our job to communicate in an easy to understand message to our respective audiences

Mapping vs geospatial analysis

Mapping Geospatial analysis

12

Acknowledges and explicitly

incorporates spatial relationships

between data and space

GIS data layers are collections of

related information that are linked

to specific geographic locations

DNV GL expert Geospatial

analysis explicitly and intentionally

incorporates spatial elements and

effects into the analysis so that

geographic changes are going to

impact the findings

Creates a representation and

approximation of a point polygon

etc in space

Maps of data can display one or

two dimensions of information at a

time

DNV GL expert I always

distinguished mapping as taking

analysis that really is done without

considering the spatial elements and

effects and then just using

addresses zip-codes

latitudelongitude etc to drop it

into a map (R Crowley)

In either case looking at data geospatially adds immediate insights to the information being conveyed

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Q What are the benefits of geospatial analysis

It makes LOCATION a

key factor in the

analysis

It can also serve as

the LINK across a wide

variety of disparate

data for organizing

your information

Q Why is location important to energy efficiency and sustainability

Find people who caredonrsquot care about being green

Identify where there are opportunities to save

Find areas or buildings vulnerable to climate events

Target marketing

Find out where and how people shop for major appliances

Anticipate best places to put EV charging stations

1970 (when no codes for insulation levels

existed) from ACS data and did

interpolation to regionally map the likely

density concentrations of residential

retrofit opportunities so that community

groups and weatherization entities knew

Problem The Panama Canal (PC) connects the Atlantic and

the Pacific oceans and is currently the worldrsquos major

shipping crossway for ocean-going ships it is transited

daily by nearly 40 ships Panama Canal Authority was

interested in conducting a climate change adaptation risk

analysis looking at the operability of the PC for navigational

purposes

Solution DNV GL applied its ADAPT model

ndash a risk-based framework for adaptation to climate change

ndash enables cost-benefits assessment of possible adaptation

strategies

ndash makes use of state-of-the-art climate models

ndash includes all major sources of uncertainty

GIS tools used A range of sea level rise databases and

tools used to model potential impact scenarios

participation and kWh savings in their

EE programs and areas of opportunity

Solution DNV GL used program

tracking data on participants to

develop densities of program activity

by county compared to show where

outreach efforts should be targeted

(more interestingly we showed

participation versus savings achieved)

Mapping tools used Tableau

reproduced in PowerBI and QGIS

Thiessen polygons

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Key takeawayshellip what did we do here

Obtained cleaned and geocoded address data rarr attributed longitude and latitude to buildings

Linked and mapped addresses to points on streets

Joined two related files back together with unique identifier key rarr Property ID and Record_ID

Displayed building locations on a map

Added features or attributes anything you are looking at to the plotted buildings rarr energy use

Discussed conceptually how to aggregate or add up data to a spatial unit to map

Discussed conceptually how to use a sample of data to estimate impacts over space

62

Aggregating or adding up data to a spatial unit (ie state county census tract etc) allows

spatial patterns to present themselves We can further analyse these patterns with statistics

It is our job to communicate in an easy to understand message to our respective audiences

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Key takeawayshellip what did we do here

Obtained cleaned and geocoded address data rarr attributed longitude and latitude to buildings

Linked and mapped addresses to points on streets

Joined two related files back together with unique identifier key rarr Property ID and Record_ID

Displayed building locations on a map

Added features or attributes anything you are looking at to the plotted buildings rarr energy use

Discussed conceptually how to aggregate or add up data to a spatial unit to map

Discussed conceptually how to use a sample of data to estimate impacts over space

62

Aggregating or adding up data to a spatial unit (ie state county census tract etc) allows

spatial patterns to present themselves We can further analyse these patterns with statistics

It is our job to communicate in an easy to understand message to our respective audiences

Step 5 Application for Dominion Energy 2012-2016 as choropleth map

Problem Dominion Energy wanted to

visualize historic customer

participation and kWh savings in their

EE programs and areas of opportunity

Solution DNV GL used program

tracking data on participants to

develop densities of program activity

by county compared to show where

outreach efforts should be targeted

(more interestingly we showed

participation versus savings achieved)

Mapping tools used Tableau

reproduced in PowerBI and QGIS

Program participants

Areas of low participation but high savings per participant = High potential target areas

61

Thiessen polygons

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Key takeawayshellip what did we do here

Obtained cleaned and geocoded address data rarr attributed longitude and latitude to buildings

Linked and mapped addresses to points on streets

Joined two related files back together with unique identifier key rarr Property ID and Record_ID

Displayed building locations on a map

Added features or attributes anything you are looking at to the plotted buildings rarr energy use

Discussed conceptually how to aggregate or add up data to a spatial unit to map

Discussed conceptually how to use a sample of data to estimate impacts over space

62

Aggregating or adding up data to a spatial unit (ie state county census tract etc) allows

spatial patterns to present themselves We can further analyse these patterns with statistics

It is our job to communicate in an easy to understand message to our respective audiences

to augment outreach efforts

Solution DNV GL analyzed data on program

activity from the tracking database and

compared against eligible customers by rate

codes to identify gaps Shows participation

rates for zip codes with at least 10 utility-

served farms Most zips with gt50 farms had

zero participation

North Carolina Sustainable Energy Association

Problem ldquoTell me where clean energy is

in North Carolinardquo Where is there

potential for residential energy efficiency

upgrades to buildings

Solution Developed Energy Data Book

(Atlas) Took home counts built prior to

1970 (when no codes for insulation levels

existed) from ACS data and did

interpolation to regionally map the likely

density concentrations of residential

retrofit opportunities so that community

groups and weatherization entities knew

where to focus their efforts

GIS tools used Quantum GIS IDW ndash

using ArcGIS Spatial Interpolation toolset

Problem Slow recovery efforts in

public housing pushed NYSERDA to

fund resiliency research

Solution DNV GL applied GIS to

identify high risk areas from storm

surges across the 5 boroughs of NYC

applied building resiliency tool B-

READY to rate NYCHA properties as

to their level of capability to

withstand climate events with focus

on energy amp building systems

GIS tools used An online tool was

developed in an ArcGISEsri

Panama Canal ndash system analysis

Problem The Panama Canal (PC) connects the Atlantic and

the Pacific oceans and is currently the worldrsquos major

shipping crossway for ocean-going ships it is transited

daily by nearly 40 ships Panama Canal Authority was

interested in conducting a climate change adaptation risk

analysis looking at the operability of the PC for navigational

purposes

Solution DNV GL applied its ADAPT model

ndash a risk-based framework for adaptation to climate change

ndash enables cost-benefits assessment of possible adaptation

strategies

ndash makes use of state-of-the-art climate models

ndash includes all major sources of uncertainty

GIS tools used A range of sea level rise databases and

tools used to model potential impact scenarios

Problem High risk for sea level

rise low cooperation among

government agenciesrsquo silos

Solution DNV GL facilitated

planning sessions with

demonstrative overlays of various

city infrastructure and how it could

be impacted

Step 5 Application for Dominion Energy 2012-2016 as choropleth map

Problem Dominion Energy wanted to

visualize historic customer

participation and kWh savings in their

EE programs and areas of opportunity

Solution DNV GL used program

tracking data on participants to

develop densities of program activity

by county compared to show where

outreach efforts should be targeted

(more interestingly we showed

participation versus savings achieved)

Mapping tools used Tableau

reproduced in PowerBI and QGIS

Thiessen polygons

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Key takeawayshellip what did we do here

Obtained cleaned and geocoded address data rarr attributed longitude and latitude to buildings

Linked and mapped addresses to points on streets

Joined two related files back together with unique identifier key rarr Property ID and Record_ID

Displayed building locations on a map

Added features or attributes anything you are looking at to the plotted buildings rarr energy use

Discussed conceptually how to aggregate or add up data to a spatial unit to map

Discussed conceptually how to use a sample of data to estimate impacts over space

62

Aggregating or adding up data to a spatial unit (ie state county census tract etc) allows

spatial patterns to present themselves We can further analyse these patterns with statistics

It is our job to communicate in an easy to understand message to our respective audiences

Key takeawayshellip what did we do here

Obtained cleaned and geocoded address data rarr attributed longitude and latitude to buildings

Linked and mapped addresses to points on streets

Joined two related files back together with unique identifier key rarr Property ID and Record_ID

Displayed building locations on a map

Added features or attributes anything you are looking at to the plotted buildings rarr energy use

Discussed conceptually how to aggregate or add up data to a spatial unit to map

Discussed conceptually how to use a sample of data to estimate impacts over space

62

Aggregating or adding up data to a spatial unit (ie state county census tract etc) allows

spatial patterns to present themselves We can further analyse these patterns with statistics

It is our job to communicate in an easy to understand message to our respective audiences

Key takeawayshellip what did we do here

Obtained cleaned and geocoded address data rarr attributed longitude and latitude to buildings

Linked and mapped addresses to points on streets

Joined two related files back together with unique identifier key rarr Property ID and Record_ID

Displayed building locations on a map

Added features or attributes anything you are looking at to the plotted buildings rarr energy use

Discussed conceptually how to aggregate or add up data to a spatial unit to map

Discussed conceptually how to use a sample of data to estimate impacts over space

62

Aggregating or adding up data to a spatial unit (ie state county census tract etc) allows

spatial patterns to present themselves We can further analyse these patterns with statistics

It is our job to communicate in an easy to understand message to our respective audiences

Step 5 Application for Dominion Energy 2012-2016 as choropleth map

Problem Dominion Energy wanted to

visualize historic customer

participation and kWh savings in their

EE programs and areas of opportunity

Solution DNV GL used program

tracking data on participants to

develop densities of program activity

by county compared to show where

outreach efforts should be targeted

(more interestingly we showed

participation versus savings achieved)

Mapping tools used Tableau

reproduced in PowerBI and QGIS

Program participants

Areas of low participation but high savings per participant = High potential target areas

Residential Efficiency Program

Participation amp Savings by

County 2012-2017 cumulative

Step 6 Analysis

Plot geocoded data and shapefiles Spatial interpolation of sample data

61

Thiessen polygons

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Key takeawayshellip what did we do here

Obtained cleaned and geocoded address data rarr attributed longitude and latitude to buildings

Linked and mapped addresses to points on streets

Joined two related files back together with unique identifier key rarr Property ID and Record_ID

Displayed building locations on a map

Added features or attributes anything you are looking at to the plotted buildings rarr energy use

Discussed conceptually how to aggregate or add up data to a spatial unit to map

Discussed conceptually how to use a sample of data to estimate impacts over space

62

Aggregating or adding up data to a spatial unit (ie state county census tract etc) allows

spatial patterns to present themselves We can further analyse these patterns with statistics

It is our job to communicate in an easy to understand message to our respective audiences

in North Carolinardquo Where is there

potential for residential energy efficiency

upgrades to buildings

Solution Developed Energy Data Book

(Atlas) Took home counts built prior to

1970 (when no codes for insulation levels

existed) from ACS data and did

interpolation to regionally map the likely

density concentrations of residential

retrofit opportunities so that community

groups and weatherization entities knew

where to focus their efforts

GIS tools used Quantum GIS IDW ndash

develop densities of program activity

by county compared to show where

outreach efforts should be targeted

(more interestingly we showed

participation versus savings achieved)

Mapping tools used Tableau

Thiessen polygons

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Key takeawayshellip what did we do here

Obtained cleaned and geocoded address data rarr attributed longitude and latitude to buildings

Linked and mapped addresses to points on streets

Joined two related files back together with unique identifier key rarr Property ID and Record_ID

Displayed building locations on a map

Added features or attributes anything you are looking at to the plotted buildings rarr energy use

Discussed conceptually how to aggregate or add up data to a spatial unit to map

Discussed conceptually how to use a sample of data to estimate impacts over space

62

Aggregating or adding up data to a spatial unit (ie state county census tract etc) allows

spatial patterns to present themselves We can further analyse these patterns with statistics

It is our job to communicate in an easy to understand message to our respective audiences

North Carolina Sustainable Energy Association

Problem ldquoTell me where clean energy is

in North Carolinardquo Where is there

potential for residential energy efficiency

upgrades to buildings

Solution Developed Energy Data Book

(Atlas) Took home counts built prior to

1970 (when no codes for insulation levels

existed) from ACS data and did

interpolation to regionally map the likely

density concentrations of residential

retrofit opportunities so that community

groups and weatherization entities knew

where to focus their efforts

GIS tools used Quantum GIS IDW ndash

Key takeawayshellip what did we do here

Obtained cleaned and geocoded address data rarr attributed longitude and latitude to buildings

Linked and mapped addresses to points on streets

Joined two related files back together with unique identifier key rarr Property ID and Record_ID

Displayed building locations on a map

Added features or attributes anything you are looking at to the plotted buildings rarr energy use

Discussed conceptually how to aggregate or add up data to a spatial unit to map

Discussed conceptually how to use a sample of data to estimate impacts over space

62

Aggregating or adding up data to a spatial unit (ie state county census tract etc) allows

spatial patterns to present themselves We can further analyse these patterns with statistics

It is our job to communicate in an easy to understand message to our respective audiences

by county compared to show where

outreach efforts should be targeted

(more interestingly we showed

participation versus savings achieved)

Mapping tools used Tableau

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Key takeawayshellip what did we do here

Obtained cleaned and geocoded address data rarr attributed longitude and latitude to buildings

Linked and mapped addresses to points on streets

Joined two related files back together with unique identifier key rarr Property ID and Record_ID

Displayed building locations on a map

Added features or attributes anything you are looking at to the plotted buildings rarr energy use

Discussed conceptually how to aggregate or add up data to a spatial unit to map

Discussed conceptually how to use a sample of data to estimate impacts over space

62

Aggregating or adding up data to a spatial unit (ie state county census tract etc) allows

spatial patterns to present themselves We can further analyse these patterns with statistics

It is our job to communicate in an easy to understand message to our respective audiences

Key takeawayshellip what did we do here

Obtained cleaned and geocoded address data rarr attributed longitude and latitude to buildings

Linked and mapped addresses to points on streets

Joined two related files back together with unique identifier key rarr Property ID and Record_ID

Displayed building locations on a map

Added features or attributes anything you are looking at to the plotted buildings rarr energy use

Discussed conceptually how to aggregate or add up data to a spatial unit to map

Discussed conceptually how to use a sample of data to estimate impacts over space

62

Aggregating or adding up data to a spatial unit (ie state county census tract etc) allows

spatial patterns to present themselves We can further analyse these patterns with statistics

It is our job to communicate in an easy to understand message to our respective audiences

EE programs and areas of opportunity

Solution DNV GL used program

tracking data on participants to

develop densities of program activity

by county compared to show where

outreach efforts should be targeted

(more interestingly we showed

participation versus savings achieved)

Mapping tools used Tableau

reproduced in PowerBI and QGIS

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Key takeawayshellip what did we do here

Obtained cleaned and geocoded address data rarr attributed longitude and latitude to buildings

Linked and mapped addresses to points on streets

Joined two related files back together with unique identifier key rarr Property ID and Record_ID

Displayed building locations on a map

Added features or attributes anything you are looking at to the plotted buildings rarr energy use

Discussed conceptually how to aggregate or add up data to a spatial unit to map

Discussed conceptually how to use a sample of data to estimate impacts over space

62

Aggregating or adding up data to a spatial unit (ie state county census tract etc) allows

spatial patterns to present themselves We can further analyse these patterns with statistics

It is our job to communicate in an easy to understand message to our respective audiences

Key takeawayshellip what did we do here

Obtained cleaned and geocoded address data rarr attributed longitude and latitude to buildings

Linked and mapped addresses to points on streets

Joined two related files back together with unique identifier key rarr Property ID and Record_ID

Displayed building locations on a map

Added features or attributes anything you are looking at to the plotted buildings rarr energy use

Discussed conceptually how to aggregate or add up data to a spatial unit to map

Discussed conceptually how to use a sample of data to estimate impacts over space

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Key takeawayshellip what did we do here

Obtained cleaned and geocoded address data rarr attributed longitude and latitude to buildings

Linked and mapped addresses to points on streets

Joined two related files back together with unique identifier key rarr Property ID and Record_ID

Displayed building locations on a map

Added features or attributes anything you are looking at to the plotted buildings rarr energy use

Discussed conceptually how to aggregate or add up data to a spatial unit to map

Discussed conceptually how to use a sample of data to estimate impacts over space

62

Aggregating or adding up data to a spatial unit (ie state county census tract etc) allows

spatial patterns to present themselves We can further analyse these patterns with statistics

It is our job to communicate in an easy to understand message to our respective audiences

Key takeawayshellip what did we do here

Obtained cleaned and geocoded address data rarr attributed longitude and latitude to buildings

Linked and mapped addresses to points on streets

Joined two related files back together with unique identifier key rarr Property ID and Record_ID

Displayed building locations on a map

Added features or attributes anything you are looking at to the plotted buildings rarr energy use

Discussed conceptually how to aggregate or add up data to a spatial unit to map

Discussed conceptually how to use a sample of data to estimate impacts over space

62

Aggregating or adding up data to a spatial unit (ie state county census tract etc) allows

spatial patterns to present themselves We can further analyse these patterns with statistics

Step 5 Application for Dominion Energy 2012-2016 as choropleth map

Problem Dominion Energy wanted to

visualize historic customer

participation and kWh savings in their

EE programs and areas of opportunity

Solution DNV GL used program

tracking data on participants to

develop densities of program activity

by county compared to show where

outreach efforts should be targeted

(more interestingly we showed

participation versus savings achieved)

Mapping tools used Tableau

reproduced in PowerBI and QGIS

Thiessen polygons

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Key takeawayshellip what did we do here

Obtained cleaned and geocoded address data rarr attributed longitude and latitude to buildings

Linked and mapped addresses to points on streets

Joined two related files back together with unique identifier key rarr Property ID and Record_ID

Displayed building locations on a map

Added features or attributes anything you are looking at to the plotted buildings rarr energy use

Discussed conceptually how to aggregate or add up data to a spatial unit to map

Discussed conceptually how to use a sample of data to estimate impacts over space

62

Aggregating or adding up data to a spatial unit (ie state county census tract etc) allows

spatial patterns to present themselves We can further analyse these patterns with statistics

It is our job to communicate in an easy to understand message to our respective audiences

Key takeawayshellip what did we do here

Obtained cleaned and geocoded address data rarr attributed longitude and latitude to buildings

Linked and mapped addresses to points on streets

Joined two related files back together with unique identifier key rarr Property ID and Record_ID

Displayed building locations on a map

Added features or attributes anything you are looking at to the plotted buildings rarr energy use

Discussed conceptually how to aggregate or add up data to a spatial unit to map

Discussed conceptually how to use a sample of data to estimate impacts over space

62

Aggregating or adding up data to a spatial unit (ie state county census tract etc) allows

spatial patterns to present themselves We can further analyse these patterns with statistics

It is our job to communicate in an easy to understand message to our respective audiences

Step 5 Application for Dominion Energy 2012-2016 as choropleth map

Problem Dominion Energy wanted to

visualize historic customer

participation and kWh savings in their

EE programs and areas of opportunity

Solution DNV GL used program

tracking data on participants to

develop densities of program activity

by county compared to show where

outreach efforts should be targeted

(more interestingly we showed

participation versus savings achieved)

DNV GL copy 24 October 2018

Key takeawayshellip what did we do here

Obtained cleaned and geocoded address data rarr attributed longitude and latitude to buildings

Linked and mapped addresses to points on streets

Joined two related files back together with unique identifier key rarr Property ID and Record_ID

Displayed building locations on a map

Added features or attributes anything you are looking at to the plotted buildings rarr energy use

Discussed conceptually how to aggregate or add up data to a spatial unit to map

Discussed conceptually how to use a sample of data to estimate impacts over space

62

Aggregating or adding up data to a spatial unit (ie state county census tract etc) allows

spatial patterns to present themselves We can further analyse these patterns with statistics

It is our job to communicate in an easy to understand message to our respective audiences

Key takeawayshellip what did we do here

Obtained cleaned and geocoded address data rarr attributed longitude and latitude to buildings

Linked and mapped addresses to points on streets

Joined two related files back together with unique identifier key rarr Property ID and Record_ID

Displayed building locations on a map

Added features or attributes anything you are looking at to the plotted buildings rarr energy use

Discussed conceptually how to aggregate or add up data to a spatial unit to map

Discussed conceptually how to use a sample of data to estimate impacts over space

62

Aggregating or adding up data to a spatial unit (ie state county census tract etc) allows

spatial patterns to present themselves We can further analyse these patterns with statistics

It is our job to communicate in an easy to understand message to our respective audiences
