Using sensor web to sharing data of ocean observing systems

Abstract

Based on the OGC New Generation SWE-Sensor Web 2.0 and other related projects implementation, this paper gives the four layers architecture of ocean sensor web and details of every layer. The Information Model layer and Interface Model layer are illustrated in detail by the actual example. At last an ocean sensor prototype system sharing data is presented based on the real ocean sensor observing system of 20 nodes wireless sensor network, which is the middleware between ocean sensors and ocean sensor observing data usage. Though the SWE 2.0 standards can be applied in complex scenarios, most of the available deployments are providing data from in-situ sensors. © 2013 Springer-Verlag.
