RESEÑA. Understanding local climate is a critical factor in the design of buildings that requires continuous research to widen its scope, deepen base information and seek data correlations. In tropical regions climate varies greatly across relatively small areas, changes in altitude and geography define conditions that add complexity to typical climate patterns. Paucity of data makes understanding tropical climates difficult. Scarcity of design strategies and computational tools designed for the tropics means bio-climatic design and basic low-energy strategies are poorly understood and underutilised. This paper describes the first phase of a collaborative project aimed at addressing these issues in Colombia.
