Thermal Mapping

About Thermal Mapping

Thermal Mapping is a powerful, value-added spatial information tool for analysing energy loss from buildings, ground features and even objects below the ground.

The thermal data that are captured are integrated with your existing building outline database so that each building in the map is assigned a heat loss value using a five level classification system. By reducing data interpretation time, you are immediately able to examine and analyse heat loss.

Thermal Mapping makes it very easy to monitor and compare heat loss from properties, associate heat loss with specific addresses and then develop and monitor energy conservation programmes.

Features

  • Digital database showing relative heat loss for individual buildings
  • Five level colour classification for ease of use and quick analysis
  • Thermal measurement accuracy of 0.018°C; measure heat loss differences of less than 1°C
  • Provision of average, mean, minimum and maximum values for each building
  • Integrated with UKMap and Ordnance Survey mapping
  • Geographically enabled and available in major GIS formats
  • Heat loss values linked to addresses (requires valid address product license e.g. Address Point)
  • Additional raster database available as colour coded thermal image layer

    • Applications

  • Building heat loss measurement
  • Strategic climate change planning
  • Community energy target setting
  • Sustainable community initiatives
  • Fuel povery calculations
  • Energy conservation programmes
  • Planning sub-surface heating systems
  • Pipe line heat loss analysis
  • Building maintenance and upgrade programmes
