Monitoring System for Smart Buildings

The demand for better safety and comfort conditions in social centers served as an incentive to improve the automation of buildings, making them intelligent systems that could be integrated. However, alongside these innovations, there has also arisen a concern for the ecological risks surrounding the smart building. With these factors as a basis, this work aimed to monitor three main systems within each apartment in the Apolo Building (Bragan¸ca, Portugal), namely electricity consumption, water consumption, and waste disposal. These systems are integrated through a common database, where they are being stored. This study intends to create a platform for data analysis, making it accessible to the consumer, raising awareness of the expenses generated, and looking for short and long term efficiency measures.
