Live Geography - Interoperable Geo-Sensor Webs Enabling Portability in Monitoring Applications
Bernd Resch, Manfred Mittlboeck · 2010
In the last decade, rapidly declining sensor costs triggered intense research in sensor technologies and vice versa. This fact led to the deployment of a number of sensor networks. However, these sensor networks tend to be deployed in monolithic stovepipe-like systems, limiting interoperability and reusability of both data and workflow components. This paper presents the Live Geography approach, which stands for the integration of real-time measurement data in a fully standardised infrastructure. A particular focus of this paper is dedicated to interoperable geo-sensor webs featuring a high degree of flexibility and portability can be deployed in various monitoring use cases in a variety of application domains.
