- Abstract
- The Residential Solar Data Center project staff in the Center for Building Technology, National Bureau of Standards, maintains a computerized data base containing non-instrumented residential data from the DoE/HUD Solar Heating and Cooling Demonstration Program. This document provides a dictionary of data elements collected as part of the Residential Solar Program and a directory of the specific files which contain the data elements. This data dictionary/directory was produced by a computer program written in ASCII COBOL. The automated procedure is briefly described in an appendix.
