TÍTULO: Study and Implementation of a Smart Tree in the IoT Context Aiming at Real-Time Measurement of Meteorological Data
PALAVRAS-CHAVES: Wind Prediction, Wavelet Transform, Machine Learning, Climate Modeling, Temperature Sensors.
PÁGINAS: 52
RESUMO: Given the growing need for innovative and accessible environmental monitoring solutions, especially in hard-to-reach areas, this study investigates the use of temperature sensors installed on a structure inspired by natural trees, the SmartTree, located at the Center for Alternative and Renewable Energies (CEAR) of the Universidade Federal da Paraíba, to estimate meteorological parameters such as wind speed and direction. The methodology is based on the application of the Discrete Wavelet Transform to extract multiscale features, which are used as input for machine learning models including Random Forest, Gradient Boosting, SVM, and Linear Regression. Data were collected from nine sensors positioned at different heights and orientations, complemented by additional information from a nearby weather station. Among the models evaluated, Random Forest achieved the best performance, reaching high accuracy with a mean absolute percentage error of only 6.60%. The results confirm the potential of the tree-inspired solution as a viable alternative for climate monitoring, with important applications such as forest fire prevention.
