Main Article Content
This research aims to analyze the applications of Internet of Things (IoT) technology, particularly in the field of environmental sciences. To achieve this, a mixed research approach was employed to analyze publications in Scopus from 2019 to 2024. A combination of bibliometric and thematic analysis was used to meet the research objectives. Among the results, it is highlighted that IoT technology facilitates real-time environmental monitoring by enabling the collection and analysis of data for effective resource management and rapid responses to environmental emergencies. Additionally, the main challenge identified is data security for the implementation of this technology. However, the potential of this technology is noteworthy in urban transformation and management. This study lays the groundwork for the development of safer technological solutions through the use of this technology in environmental sciences. The theoretical relevance for entities responsible for maximizing the impact of IoT on the environment is particularly emphasized.
