Abstract

An ontology for describing larger scale urban elements and their properties. The ontology is mostly focussed on capturing urban energy related data, however, other urban data can also be captured.

Introduction back to ToC

This is a place holder text for the introduction. The introduction should briefly describe the ontology, its motivation, state of the art and goals.
