| Abstract |
| The fate of nuclear and radiological legacy facilities is rapidly becoming a critical issue. Our proposal is to improve data on existing, legacy radiological facilities so that decisions can be made about whether to treat or replace radiological facilities and exceptional buildings. Using GIS applications and an analytical database, the inherited facilities can be classified based on the seriousness and importance of modernization or treatment, allowing the competent authorities to decide whether to renovate, replace, or decontaminate the radiation buildings. We used the study to develop a database analysis methodology that allows GIS tools to test some of facilities quickly and accurately. Buildings that need to be replaced and buildings that can be easily renovated can be identified using these tools, which take into account design and construction criteria. The use of a GIS model for each building represents a significant added value of the method because it allows for the identification of specific buildings or clusters of buildings, as well as their quantification and distribution. The developed GIS tool * Energy Scout is a tool for estimating the energy impacts of various energy conservation measures (ECMs). residential and commercial buildings. Scout characterizes ECMs using their relative or absolute performance, installed cost, service lifetime, and year of introduction. Probability distributions can be placed on ECM performance, cost, and lifetime inputs, which then propagate through to final energy impacts. |
