Abstract

Nowadays, the whole of society can benefit by collecting, sharing, and exploiting sensor data to offer valuable information to decision makers regarding human health, global environment protection, and improvement of water resources, energy, and agricultural management. This chapter explores data processing aspects for Sensor Web that let users process and use real-time sensor data from heterogeneous distributed sensors, identifying basic requirements to build geospatial processing applications such as encodings, metadata, standards for describing sensors, et cetera. These aspects are presented as part of the development process of an SOS client with versions targeted to desktop and mobile environments. The client is developed as a plug-in for the open source GIS gvSIG, which allows the combination of sensor data with other data coming from several different sources.
