This week I had to spend some time debugging issues with fully integrating the forecasting models into our web app. After working on those issues, I’ve started focusing on the web app design and implementation of certain demo features that we want ready for Friday. Currently, the web app lacks dynamic and interactive elements as well as good examples to show the extremes of our tool, so I’m working on creating some preset scenarios that users could choose from. These include scenarios like “hot, sunny day” and “cloudy, windy day” and “christmas” to show how loads, renewable energy generation and the grid optimization are affected by external features.
For next week, I plan to contribute to the poster, video and final report. I’ll also spend some more time working on the front end for the forecasting statistics tab to add any visualizations that might be interesting.
