InFraReD - An Intelligent Framework for Resilient Design

AbstractClimate change is no longer a debate but a real urgency. City planners, developers, architects and municipalities need to understand the impact of our buildings on the environment and make resilient plans for the future. However, environmental simulations are very complex, time consuming and not accessible.InFraReD is a platform for resilient city planning based on Artificial Intelligence. It uses state of the art machine learning models to provide real-time simulation prediction on complex environmental simulations, such as wind, solar radiation and thermal comfort. InFraReD’s models are trained on large simulation data sets to be able to give instant feedback on design decisions, minimizing the complexity and resources required and making advanced environmental simulations accessible to all.
