We have developed many studies in this line, being experts in "internal conditions of wineries".

The environmental conditions in the aging room must be adequate but the energy expenditure of the wineries is high. Therefore, it is necessary to enhance passive strategies in the cellars, characterize their shape and geometry (especially in ancient cellars), and optimize their integration with the environment.

Some of the techniques used are 3D Laser  Scanervand infrared thermography for indoor climate control.

The  PADOC (heritage, landscape, graphic documentation and agroforestry construction)  research group was formally established as a Consolidated Research Group at the Polytechnic University of Madrid in 2005.
Teachers participating in it belong to two architecture schools and two schools of agriculture:
School of Architecture at the Polytechnic University of Madrid.
The School of Architecture and Geodesy, University of Alcalá de Henares
College of Agricultural Engineering of the Polytechnic University of Madrid.
Superior Technical School of Agricultural Engineering of the Polytechnic University of Madrid.

Some of the projects in which the group is currently working on are:

-Cocoa. New project: Study Cocoa agro-industrial waste. Funded by Universidad Politécnica de Madrid Within the “Proyectos-Semilla (PID)”. Project Manager Ignacio Cañas Guerrero. This project is in collaboration with Central University of Venezuela. Duration 2015. Other information in cocoa: http://www.grupoinvestigacionpadoc.com/investigacion/investigacion.php?iditem=62&lang=en

-Cocoa: Valuing cultural heritage of cocoa through tourism landscapes.

-Landscape integration of Greenhouses and wind farms.

-Integrating Agricultural buildings into the landscape: reuse.

-Underground Cellars, an energy-saving model through building systems. The study of hygrothermal conditions, ventilation and simulation models.
