SMGR: sistema de monitoramento e gestão remotos de maquinário em canteiros de obras

Abstract

The management and predictive monitoring of machinery in construction sites were always considered to be important, but not critical. With the increased availability of wireless communication technologies and the Internet, a paradigm shift is being observed throughout the industry. By means of a continuous monitoring, it is possible for companies to be more efficient, more productive, and provide better safety for its employees. This work proposes a system based on a client/server architecture for the management and monitoring of machinery in large construction sites. An embedded module installed in each machine sends information about a variety of sensors to a central server, which in turn stores all the data in a database. Through a web interface, managers will have easy access to all information about the machinery, allowing them to focus on analysis and planning rather than the costly process of collecting the data.
