A Comprehensive Review of Sensor-Based Smart Building Monitoring and Data Gathering Techniques.

In an era where buildings are increasingly becoming multifaceted entities, the paradigm of smart buildings has witnessed significant evolution. This advancement integrates sophisticated communication technologies, the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), and data analytics. Intending to design an effective smart building monitoring system, this research paper explores and compares various solutions for measuring building parameters by identifying a broad spectrum of review articles considering building occupant behavior, sensor deployment, and implementation complexity. The objective of our paper is to compile diverse information on various sensors used for monitoring building conditions and provide a comprehensive overview of data structuring and processing, all within a single article. Additionally, this paper addresses the challenges of combining data from decentralized systems and the need for managerial tools to optimize user experiences. The findings contribute to the advancement of smart building management, offering valuable insights for improving building performance and user experience as well as evaluating future research directions in this field. This review is designed to serve as an introduction for anyone venturing into the field of building monitoring. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
