Dataset of monitoring campaign of occupant behavior in mixed-mode office buildings in a high-altitude tropical climate

General data description
The data collection was conducted in the city of São Carlos, SP, Brazil (UTC/GMT -3). Measurements took place in six different buildings, where 11 offices were monitored during a campaign that took place between December/2017 and August/2019. Not all months have recorded data during this period due to the offices’ availability.
All monitored offices were mixed-mode offices with areas ranging from 10 to 50m2.
Each office displayed operable window(s) and an air conditioning (AC) unit, which were both freely operated by users. The number of windows varied, but only one window in each office was monitored.
Outdoor variables were taken from a meteorological station that belongs to the National Institute of Meteorology . The station, ID A711 OMM Code: 86845 (www.inmet.gov.br/sonabra), takes hourly measurements, therefore the values in the spreadsheets were treated to fit the 10-minute interval of the other measurements.
There was no equipment to record the AC state, so the AC temperature was recorded instead, and the AC state later calculated for the purposes of our research project. Columns N-S in the spreadsheets are part of the method developed to calculate the AC state. As the method is not completely accurate, verification of the calculated AC state is possible using the graphs, resulting in eventual overrides of the calculated state so it matches the condition indicated by the AC temperatures.

Observations:

a. Files for Office A, Office D and Office G for the month of August (2018 and 2019), show AC was use for heating. In such files, the AC state was not calculated, either to identify the AC for heating periods or otherwise.
b. Highlighted portions in Column M (AC State) indicate an override in the state according to the information displayed on the graph.

数据集总体说明
本次数据采集工作开展于巴西圣保罗州圣卡洛斯市（协调世界时/格林尼治标准时间-3时区）。监测覆盖6栋建筑内的11间办公室，监测周期为2017年12月至2019年8月。由于部分办公室无法全程配合，本周期内并非所有月份均有有效监测数据。

所有被监测办公室均为混合模式办公空间，面积区间为10至50平方米。每间办公室均配备可开启窗户与空调（air conditioning, AC）机组，二者均可由使用者自主操控。办公室的窗户数量不尽相同，但每间办公室仅监测其中一扇窗户的状态。

室外环境参数取自巴西国家气象局（National Institute of Meteorology, INMET）下属的气象站点，该站点编号为A711，世界气象组织（OMM）代码为86845（数据来源：www.inmet.gov.br/sonabra），其观测频率为每小时一次，因此需对电子表格中的室外参数进行适配处理，以匹配其余监测数据的10分钟采样间隔。

由于缺乏直接记录空调运行状态的设备，本次监测转而记录空调温度，并后续通过本研究开发的方法推算空调运行状态。电子表格中的N至S列即为该推算方法的相关参数。鉴于该推算方法并非完全精准，可通过配套图表对推算得到的空调运行状态进行人工校验，必要时可手动修正推算结果，使其与空调温度记录的实际工况相符。

说明事项：
a. 2018年及2019年8月的A、D、G三间办公室的监测文件显示，彼时空调被用于供暖工况。在此类文件中，未进行空调运行状态的推算，包括供暖时段及其他运行工况的识别。
b. 电子表格M列（空调运行状态）中的高亮区段，表示依据配套图表的监测信息对推算得到的空调运行状态进行了手动修正。
