Outline of Final Research Achievements

Energy conservation of housing life is an urgent issue all over the world. The use of solar energy is one of the methods to solve the issue. There are great possibilities as an energy source. Although solar systems are useful, the effects are influenced by not only regional climate but also obstacles around a site.
In this research, we conducted the research on the influence of surrounding obstacles around a site by using several kinds of GIS data. The achievements are as follows. (1) Development of forecasting system for solar radiation by fish eye lens attached with a smart phone. (2) Development of the method to create a climate data for a site using GIS data and standard weather data. (3) Numerical analysis on influences of surrounding obstacles on heating, cooling energy, and solar system.
