Abstract:
Realizing a system to harmonize and disseminate heterogeneous data, collected by different meteo-oceanographic buoys is a challenge. In this paper, we describe a procedure for data validation, conversion in a homogeneous and standard format and dissemination adopting Sensor Web Enablement (SWE) using XML (eXtensible Markup Language) and OGC (Open Geospatial Consortium) standards. To meet the needs of different scientific communities as RITMARE (La Ricerca ITaliana per il MARE), Jerico (Towards a joint European research infrastructure network for coastal observatories), MyOcean, ODIP (Ocean Data Interoperability Platform), FixO3 (Fixed-point Open Ocean Observatories), we decided to adopt SWE standard allowing interoperability between data in near real-time, using SensorML (Sensor Model Language) and O&M (Observations and Measurements) standards in a Sensor Observation Service. With last developments, we are able to distribute new collected data in real-time.
