SensorML


SensorML is an approved Open Geospatial Consortium standard. SensorML provides standard models and an XML encoding for describing sensors and measurement processes. SensorML can be used to describe a wide range of sensors, including both dynamic and stationary platforms and both in-situ and remote sensors.
Functions supported include
sensor discovery
sensor geolocation
processing of sensor observations
a sensor programming mechanism
subscription to sensor alerts
Examples of supported sensors are
stationary, in-situ – chemical “sniffer”, thermometer, gravity meter
stationary, remote – stream velocity profiler, atmospheric profiler, Doppler radar
dynamic, in-situ – aircraft mounted ozone “sniffer”, GPS unit, dropsonde
dynamic, remote – satellite radiometer, airborne camera, soldier-mounted video
