Many sensor applications, distributing many different kinds of sensors, across the world

Current standardization efforts

Internet and World Wide Web oriented infrastructure for "collecting, modeling, storing, retrieving, sharing, manipulating, analyzing, and visualizing information about sensors and sensor observations"

Incorporates tags into the actual XML data via RDFa

Registry of domain-specific ontologies

Several common elements modeled in mid--upper ontologies

  • Query by location via coordinate, bounding box, named location
  • Time interval semantics

Mentions incorporating rules, but don't place into real framework

  • I.e., to take temperature and weather information and infer road conditions

Doesn't really discuss how data is collected, gets queried, but makes clear that it's basically in the context of a centralized database service
