How green is my street?

Using an energy consumption database provided by the City of Lausanne at Make Open Data 2011, we determine how “green” a street is by averaging the environmental friendliness of the buildings on it. We compare this to the national average as detailed below.

Developed as a CouchApp, with data conversion in Python. Embedded map of Lausanne from GeoAdmin.

See also consommation_energie_lausanne for a project that used the same data set.
