Commercial and Residential Buildings JSON-LD Description

The commercial and residential JSON-LD template is designed based on BuildingSync Schema and Building Energy Data Exchange Specification (BEDES) Dictionary.

It defines several key meta information like climate zone, building location and size for building energy efficiency research.
