Enriching Authoritative Environmental Observations: Findings from AirSensEUR
نویسندگان
چکیده
This short paper provides an overview of our activities in establishing the AirSensEUR open software/hardware multi-sensor platform for measuring ambient air quality. Particular emphasis is put on the experiences and lessons learned in the implementation of our platform from the point of view of interoperable data management. Following an overview of the context, architecture and results, we focus on the challenges we came across in implementing AirSensEUR, in particular related to (i) existing standards, (ii) open source software, and (iii) clients which are able to consume our observation data. The conclusion provides information regarding our future research direction.

Next Generation Air Quality Platform: Openness and Interoperability for the Internet of Things
The widespread diffusion of sensors, mobile devices, social media and open data are reconfiguring the way data underpinning policy and science are being produced and consumed. This in turn is creating both opportunities and challenges for policy-making and science. There can be major benefits from the deployment of the IoT in smart cities and environmental monitoring, but to realize such benefi...
متن کاملChemical under Consideration for Possible Listing via the Authoritative Bodies Mechanism: Methanol
Methanol may meet the criteria for listing as known to the State to cause reproductive toxicity under the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (Health and Safety Code Section 25249.5 et seq.), more commonly known as Proposition 65, via the authoritative bodies mechanism. The regulatory requirements for listing by this mechanism are set forth in Title 22, California Code of Regu...
متن کاملSpace-borne observations link the tropical atlantic ozone maximum and paradox to lightning
The potential enhancement of tropospheric column ozone values over the Tropical Atlantic Ocean on a seasonal basis by lightning is investigated using satellite derived ozone data, TRMM lightning data, ozonesonde data and NCEP reanalysis during 1998–2001. Our results show that the number of lightning flashes in Africa and South America reach a maximum during September, October and November (SON)...
متن کاملEnriching Top-down Geo-ontologies Using Bottom-up Knowledge Mined from Linked Data
Geo-ontologies provide formal specifications of geographic concepts, and can be embedded into geographic information systems to support automatic reasoning. Traditionally, geo-ontologies are developed through a top-down approach in which a group of experts collaboratively decide about the formalization. While such an approach captures valuable expert knowledge, the resulting geo-ontologies coul...
متن کاملSemantic and geometric enrichment of 3D geo-spatial models with captioned photos and labelled illustrations
There are many 3D digital models of buildings with cultural heritage interest, but most of them lack semantic annotation that could be used to inform users of mobile and desktop applications about their origins and architectural features. We describe methods in an ongoing project for enriching 3D models with generic annotation, derived from examples of images of building components and from lab...
