The proposed image-to-data method leverages Large Language Models (LLMs) with prompt engineering and domain knowledge to estimate building features relevant for sustainability calculations. By processing images of buildings, the model can accurately predict a range of features, surpassing human performance in a comparable task. The approach is demonstrated on 47 apartments, showcasing its potential for generating tailored recommendations for property owners. Furthermore, the method’s scalability is discussed.

This research uses AI to figure out how to make buildings more sustainable without needing detailed information about the building itself. By looking at pictures of buildings, a special type of computer program can guess things like insulation levels and energy usage. The results are surprisingly good – better than what a human could do! This technology has the potential to help building owners make changes that will reduce their environmental impact.
