JSON Dataset of Simulated Building Heat Control for System of Systems Interoperability

https://doi.org/10.5878/e5hb-ne80

Interoperability in systems-of-systems is a difficult problem due to the abundance of data standards and formats. Current approaches to interoperability rely on hand-made adapters or methods using ontological metadata. This dataset was created to facilitate research on data-driven interoperability solutions. The data comes from a simulation of a building heating system, and the messages sent within control systems-of-systems. For more information see attached data documentation. The data comes in two semicolon-separated (;) csv files, training.csv and test.csv. The train/test split is not random; training data comes from the first 80% of simulated timesteps, and the test data is the last 20%. There is no specific validation dataset, the validation data should instead be randomly selected from the training data. The simulation runs for as many time steps as there are outside temperature values available. The original SMHI data only samples once every hour, which we linearly interpolate to get one temperature sample every ten seconds. The data saved at each time step consists of 34 JSON messages (four per room and two temperature readings from the outside), 9 temperature values (one per room and outside), 8 setpoint values, and 8 actuator outputs. The data associated with each of those 34 JSON-messages is stored as a single row in the tables. This means that much data is duplicated, a choice made to make it easier to use the data. The simulation data is not meant to be opened and analyzed in spreadsheet software, it is meant for training machine learning models. It is recommended to open the data with the pandas library for Python, available at https://pypi.org/project/pandas/Opens in a new tab. The data file with temperatures (smhi-july-23-29-2018.csv) acts as input for the thermodynamic building simulation found on Github, where it is used to get the outside temperature and corresponding timestamps. Temperature data for Luleå Summer 2018 were downloaded from SMHI.
