Yet the lack of a single standardised method of measurement, when coupled with an inability to understand the true state of emissions in complex logistics activities, presents enormous barriers for businesses to understanding the extent of their emissions footprint. One of the traditional approaches to accurately capturing and monitoring gas emissions in logistics is through using gas sensors. However, connecting, maintaining, and operating gas sensors on moving vehicles in different road and weather conditions is a large and costly challenge. This paper presents the development and evaluation of a reliable and accurate sensing technique for GHG emissions collection (or monitoring) in real-time, employing the Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to eliminate or reduce the usage of gas sensors, using reliable and cost-effective solutions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s23187971","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,9,20]],"date-time":"2023-09-20T01:32:50Z","timestamp":1695173570000},"page":"7971","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":24,"title":["ArtEMon: Artificial Intelligence and Internet of Things Powered Greenhouse Gas Sensing for Real-Time Emissions Monitoring"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"23","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0588-5931","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ali","family":"Yavari","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Science, Computing and Engineering Technologies, Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne, VIC 3122, Australia"},{"name":"6G Research and Innovation Lab, Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne, VIC 3122, Australia"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1191-9218","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Irfan Baig","family":"Mirza","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Science, Computing and Engineering Technologies, Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne, VIC 3122, Australia"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1403-4554","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hamid","family":"Bagha","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Infrastructure Engineering, University of Melbourne, Melbourne, VIC 3010, Australia"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2394-8027","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Harindu","family":"Korala","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Railway Technology, Monash University, Melbourne, VIC 3800, Australia"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8778-7296","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hussein","family":"Dia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Civil and Construction Engineering, Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne, VIC 3122, Australia"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2776-1742","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Paul","family":"Scifleet","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Business, Law and Entrepreneurship, Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne, VIC 3122, Australia"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5421-2728","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jason","family":"Sargent","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Business, Law and Entrepreneurship, Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne, VIC 3122, Australia"}]},{"given":"Caroline","family":"Tjung","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Design and Architecture, Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne, VIC 3122, Australia"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3520-1553","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mahnaz","family":"Shafiei","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Science, Computing and Engineering Technologies, Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne, VIC 3122, Australia"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,9,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"Ritchie, H.
