Short Summary
The Bangladesh IoT Environmental Dataset (BIED) is a curated collection of simulated IoT sensor readings representing diverse environmental conditions across Bangladesh, designed to support AI, IoT, and environmental research through analysis, prediction, and system validation.
Objective
- To create and provide a realistic, context-specific IoT environmental dataset for Bangladesh, simulating continuous monitoring of critical environmental parameters, to facilitate research in AI, IoT, and environmental monitoring, prediction, and system validation.
Study Configuration
- Spatial Scale: Five distinct regions across Bangladesh: Urban (Dhaka), Rural (Rajshahi), Coastal (Khulna), Industrial (Narayanganj), and Agricultural (Bogura).
- Temporal Scale: Hourly readings simulated over several days, incorporating realistic diurnal, seasonal, and regional variations.
Methodology and Data
- Models used: Not applicable; the paper describes a dataset generated through simulation rather than using pre-existing models for analysis. The dataset itself is generated using "Sensor Behavior Modeling" to include realistic drift, noise, and fluctuation patterns.
- Data sources: Simulated IoT sensor readings. The dataset is a synthetic creation mimicking real-world sensor data, not derived from external observational or reanalysis sources.
Main Results
- The Bangladesh IoT Environmental Dataset (BIED) was developed, comprising over 10,000 records in CSV format.
- The dataset includes seven environmental variables: Temperature (°C), Humidity (%), Air Quality Index (AQI), Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) levels (ppm), Soil Moisture (%), Rainfall (mm), and Light Intensity (lux).
- Data is provided with hourly temporal resolution and covers five distinct regional contexts within Bangladesh.
- The dataset incorporates realistic sensor behavior modeling, including drift, noise, and fluctuation patterns, to enhance its applicability for real-world system validation.
Contributions
- Provides the first known Bangladesh-contextualized IoT environmental dataset, addressing a gap in regionally specific data for AI, IoT, and environmental research.
- Offers a versatile resource for various applications, including smart agriculture, smart city systems, climate research, anomaly detection in IoT systems, AI/TinyML model training, and IoT platform testing.
- Enhances realism by incorporating simulated sensor drift, noise, and fluctuations, making it suitable for validating robust IoT systems and algorithms.
Funding
- Not specified in the provided text.
