Digital tools for the environmental assessment of buildings
Our vision
When we imagine the future of the real estate industry, we see resource-efficient and climate-friendly buildings. The way to achieve this is through environmental assessment with the help of digital building models - as an integral part of every construction, conversion and demolition plan.
Research-based and practice-oriented
Background
The idea behind the Sustainable Resource Application (SURAP) originated at the Center for Environmental System Research (CESR) at the University of Kassel. The institute focuses on problem analyses and solution scenarios for climate change and the sustainable use of resources. The development of the SURAP software builds on the doctoral thesis of founding member Dr. Ing-Husam Sameer and transfers research into planning practice.
