Version 2.16.0

This release contains new functionality to help track building-portfolio programs such as Benchmarking and basic-Building Performance Standards. In order to track programs, SEED was updated with a program configuration page with the selection of two metrics to track (an energy and emissions metric). The tracking requires an actual and a goal column to be defined allowing the program to determine if a property is in compliance.

A new program insight page was created to allow easy visualization over the compliance periods. In addition, new backend functionality was created for "filter groups" allowing for a user to save a set of labels and filters into a recallable filter group. The filter groups can be then aggregated with sums, averages, etc., and plotted on a custom report page.

Lastly, the new changelog format comes directly from GitHub now, removing the need to run the custom GitHub script.
