Smart Energy Research Lab: Building a cross-disciplinary platform for smart meter data

Speaker: Darren Bell, UK Data Service

This presentation explores the Smart Energy Research Lab (SERL) a five-year consortium project between the UK Data Archive and University College London. The presentation described how they have approached storing cross-disciplinary data at scale using a variety of data models including wide column store and property graph on a Hadoop platform. During the talk, Darren considered some of the challenges in treating data at the data point level and how going forward, this can support a “domain agnostic” and truly interoperable approach to subsetting variable data and generating bespoke data products in real time form sources as diverse as IoT meter data and “traditional” social science surveys.

This presentation was part of CLOSER's webinar series, Metadata management in the real world.
