Sensor web is a part of a larger IoT. Sensor Web encompasses a network of sensors where information shared by one sensor can be shared and used by other sensors. The goal of the sensor web is basically the collection of various types of information from wireless sensor networks (WSN). Wireless sensor networks are used in many fields nowadays. The main challenge of the WSN's is data integration and data provision for the applications using the data. WSN's consists of heterogeneous sensor devices; the data collected from these heterogeneous devices is used by many web applications. In this paper a middleware module is proposed that serves as an abstraction layer between the WSN and the rest of the system.
