1. “like Twitter for sensors”

2. Together we’re building a
connected world that puts
people first.
That’s why every user is able to
connect, sub and pub Open
Data freely through our
platform.

3. Open data is data that is made available by
organisations, businesses and individuals
for anyone to access, use and share.
But What is Open Data?

4. Open Data is the foundation of thriving
businesses
#2 route app
Open Corporates - global corporate
interests and networks
Demand Logic - energy savings
GeoLytix - value-add data
Mastodon C - Big ‘Open Data’, healthcare
Spend Network - financial data (22bn)
Food Trade - food awareness via data

5. At all points of the pyramid
KNOWLEDGE
CURATION
INFORMATION
AGGREGATION
DATA
PUBLICATION

6. The Future City will be Open.
Devices may be closed but the data
can’t afford to be.

7. The Problem:
The (OLD) Chain of data custody between a
Local Authority and Devices
“Sensor device > Data Provider > people > DB >
people > ETL > people> CSV > public entity> people
> ETL> IT Vendor> DW > people > CSV >
Sharepoint > Dropbox > and… us !!!”

8. Let us design solutions to
problems of today rather than
some unknowable future.

9. We’re building a commons around sensor data

10. Connect things & Scale “50 Billion IoT devices to
be connected by 2020”
— Gartner
Real Time
Pub/Sub
Decentralised

Open & Private
Highly
scalable
Search
Device level

11. Orgs easily connect projects
Manage all your devices
and data in one place
Create your own
community
Device health
monitoring

12. OpenSensors Flows Flows simplify the process
of hacking together
sensors and data
OpenSensors Flows is a
hosted instance of Node-
RED
The IoT nitty gritty can be
a tad repetitive, Flows
introduces reusable code
Drag & Drop graphical tool

13. Office Desk Sensors
Energy Monitoring
Footfall
Responsive
environments
Smart Buildings

14. Parking Sensors
Railway Networks
Connected Cars
(V2X)
Transport

15. Air Quality
Flooding
Earthquakes
Environment

16. All Open Data projects on OpenSensors are
free, at no cost to the user.
We only charge for private use.
