Title: Make housing characteristics format consistent.
Description: Made housing characteristics a consistent format. Added integrity check to ensure housing characteristics follow the guildelines specified in read-the-docs. In the effort to make the format more consistent, the following format has been applied to the housing characteristics. Standardizing the format of the housing characteristics should make it easier to see differences in commits
All line terminators are ‘rn’ which is consistent with Windows machines.
All Option columns have format ‘%.6f’.
All [For Reference Only] Source Sample Size columns are type ‘int’.
All [For Reference Only] Source Weight columns are type ‘int’.

Title: Neighbors update
Description: Update the multifamily project’s neighbors and orientation tsv files to have geometry building type dependency; remove the now obsolete “Geometry Is Multifamily Low Rise.tsv” file. Remove Geometry Is Multifamily Low Rise.tsv from all projects, and replace with Geometry Building Type.tsv as a dependency in the multifamily project. Use Geometry Building Type.tsv as dependency for Neighbors.tsv in multifamily project. Use Geometry Building Type.tsv as dependency for Orientation.tsv in multifamily project.

[workflow] [feature] [mechanics] ¶
Date: 2020-01-30
Title: Addresses #344, adjust timeseries csv index for DST
Description: Include additional “daylight saving time” and “utc time” columns to timeseries csv file to account for one hour forward and backward time shifts. The TimeseriesCSVExport measure outputs time at a constant interval across a year, regardless of time changes for daylight savings time. This can cause confusion, as E+ shifts schedules to account for DST, but our time output does not line up with this shift.

Title: Addresses #352, optionally include annual totals for end use subcategories
Description: The results csv now optionally reports annual totals for all end use subcategories, including appliances, plug loads, etc. Can now optionally report (using the SimulationOutputReport measure) annual totals for end use subcategories (same as for the TimeseriesCSVExport measure) in the results csv. Measure also checks that the sum of the end use subcategories equals the reported interior equipment value.

[workflow] [bugfix] [reporting] ¶
Date: 2020-01-30
Title: Addresses #344, adjust timeseries csv index for DST
Description: Update each PAT project’s AMI selection to “2.9.0”. The TimeseriesCSVExport measure outputs time at a constant interval across a year, regardless of time changes for daylight savings time. This can cause confusion, as E+ shifts schedules to account for DST, but our time output does not line up with this shift.

Title: Addresses #352, optionally include annual totals for end use subcategories
Description: Custom meters for ceiling fan, hot water recirc pump, and vehicle end use subcategories were not properly implemented. Can now optionally report (using the SimulationOutputReport measure) annual totals for end use subcategories (same as for the TimeseriesCSVExport measure) in the results csv. Measure also checks that the sum of the end use subcategories equals the reported interior equipment value.
