GIS Talk 2016
GIS Talk 2016 takes place from October 25 – 26, 2016 in Munich. Experts, users and decision makers meet to present and discuss the solutions GIS offers for IoT, Smart Cities, Industrie 4.0, Digitalisation and Open Data. 52°North’s Dr. Simon Jirka presents Sensor Web use cases in the forum “Natur, Environment and Resources“. The conference is in German.
October 25, 2016 13:00 – 17:00
“Sensor Web – Hydrological, Oceanographic and Environmental Monitoring Use Cases” (Sensor Web – Anwendungsbeispiele aus Hydrologie, Ozeanografie und Umweltmonitoring): Dr. Simon Jirka
Abstract: Sensor Web technology’s capability to enable the interoperable exchange of measurement data increases steadily. In addition to the plug-and-play connection of sensors, archives of measurement data can be accessed via Sensor Web interfaces. Dr. Jirka presents typcial use cases for Sensor Web components in various contexts. The examples cover hydrological applications, marine sensor systems and the delivery of air quality data to the European Environment Agency (EEA).
