The document proposes a "Plug and Work" system to automatically manage and integrate physical sensor data from multiple vendors stored in a standardized format. The system would address current issues where proprietary software requires manual integration of data across different sensors. It would use XML schemas and templates to describe sensor data formats, convert raw data files to XML, and allow new sensors to easily integrate by adding their template without modifying the system. The templates and an enrichment processor would convert different raw data files to a common XML format that can then be queried together.
