description: "The Decision-support and Emissions Prediction Interactive Cities Tool\
  \ (DEPICT) aims at predicting the cross-sectoral (building construction, operation\
  \ and vehicles) energy consumption and greenhouse gases emissions at campus and\
  \ urban scale. It leverages capabilities of multiple modeling tools: EnergyPlus\
  \ for building operation, CalEEMod for building construction and gas vehicle, BEAM\
  \ for electric vehicles and SAM for building–integrated photovoltaics. It distinguishes\
  \ from other cross-sectoral model such as CalEEMod or BEST in that it uses physical\
  \ models, rather than empirical models, for all sectors, which allows for a more\
  \ accurate and customizable quantification. It is relevant for short-term multi-sectoral\
  \ decision making by developers and city planners and long-term policy making by\
  \ municipal and state officials. Information about all the developers"
