• Abstract: Window to Wall Ratios (WWR) are key to assessing the energy, daylight and ventilation performance of buildings. Studies have shown that window area has a large impact on building performance and simulation. However, data to set up these environmental models and simulations is typically not available. Instead, a standard 40% WWR is typically assumed for all buildings. This paper leverages existing computer vision window detection methods to predict WWR of buildings from external street view images using semantic segmentation, demonstrating the potential for adapting established computer vision technique in architectural applications
