In this paper, an application programming interface for wireless sensor networks (WSN API) is presented. The WSN API consists of a client-side API (gateway API) and a sensor-side API (node API). The WSN API conceals the complexities of WSN communication protocols and architectures, and provides a well-defined and easy-to-use way to collect data from sensors. Also, easy expandability for new sensor components and applications is provided. The WSN API is implemented practically in TUTWSN prototype platforms
