It's Different

摘要: Residential buildings contribute significantly to the overall energy usage across world. Real deployments, and collected data thereof, play a critical role in providing insights into home consumption occupant behavior. Existing datasets from real residential deployments are all developed countries. Developing countries, such as India, present unique opportunities evaluate scalability of existing research diverse settings. Building upon more than year experience sensor network we undertake an extensive deployment three storey Delhi, spanning 73 days May-August 2013, measuring electrical, water ambient parameters. We used 33 sensors home, these parameters, collecting total approx. 400 MB daily. discuss architectural implications on systems that can be for monitoring control context developing Addressing unreliability electrical grid internet settings, Sense Local-store Upload architecture robust collection. While several aspects, our further validates common considerations similar discussed previously literature. also release data- Indian Ambient Water Electricity Sensing (iAWE), public use.
