Abstract:
Significant unregulated development is occurring in sensor devices, protocols
and sensor networks especially in the areas of air and water quality monitoring and
management where the focus has been on human health and exposure impacts. Satellite
technology is well established as a means of deploying sensors. However, for monitoring
of air and water we lack the interconnectivity of both in-situ and remote sensing devices
that link to interoperable information systems. One reason for this deficiency is the lack of
a sensor network infrastructure generic enough to support this interoperability and
interconnectivity.
This workshop will explore the architectural aspects of creating robust sensor networks
including the aspects of the processing and visualisation of sensor-related information. The
discussion will take into account topics like interoperability, self-organisation, network
management and sensor service architectures. Candidate open geospatial architectures
specified by European initiatives and research projects are taken as examples.
