This document introduces the OGC SensorThings API. It begins with an agenda that covers introducing IoT and sensor web, an overview of the SensorThings API and its benefits, and two case studies. It then provides background on the presenter and his company SensorUp, who developed the first implementation of the SensorThings API. The rest of the document discusses what the SensorThings API is, its benefits like being open, location-intelligent, and reducing time to market, and examples of its applications in environmental monitoring and disaster response. FAQs are addressed and two case studies are described in more detail.
Open IoT Made Easy - Introduction to OGC SensorThings APISensorUp
This is the slides presented at FOSS4G N.A. Conference.
This presentation will introduce and demonstrate the OGC SensorThings API. The OGC SensorThings API is a new Open Geospatial Consortium standard that provides an open and unified way to interconnect the Internet of Things (IoT) devices, data, and applications over the Web. Unlike the traditional OGC standards, SensorThings API is very simple and efficient. At the same time, it is also comprehensive and designed to handle complex use cases. It builds on a rich set of proven-working and widely-adopted open standards, such as the OGC Sensor Web Enablement (SWE) standards, including the ISO/OGC Observation and Measurement (O&M) and Sensor Observation Services (SOS). The main difference between the SensorThings API and the OGC SOS is that the SensorThings API is designed specifically for the resource-constrained IoT devices and the Web developer community. As a result, the SensorThings API follows the REST principles, the use of an efficient JSON encoding, and the use of the flexible OASIS OData protocol and URL conventions. We will also demonstrate several real-world applications of the OGC SensorThings API in emergency management and smart cities. In addition to introduce the specification, this talk will also demonstrate an end-to-end IoT application based on the open source libraries of the SensorUp SensorThings platform.

Arctic Web Map, PolarMap.js, Arctic Sensor Web, and Arctic Citizen SensorsSensorUp
This is a presentation presented at FOSS4G North America in Raleigh, NC on May 3rd 2016.
We are presenting a suite of web mapping tools designed specifically for the Arctic regions. These tools are Arctic Citizen Sensors, Arctic Web Maps, and PolarMap.js. These Arctic-specific web mapping tools allowing researchers and developers to customize map projections for scientifically accurate visualization and analysis, a function that is critical for arctic research but not easy to do with existing web mapping platforms. Arctic Citizen Sensors is a citizen-sensing platform based on open source hardware and the OGC SensorThings API. It empowers the northern communities to collect environmental sensing data and develop innovative applications with the open sensing data. Arctic Web Maps (AWM) is an Arctic-focused tile server offering mapping tiles. By providing tiles in multiple Arctic projections, data can be more accurately visualized compared to most Mercator projected map tiles. The open source client library, PolarMap.js, is designed to be easy to use and easy to extend. It does this by providing a simple wrapper for building a typical Leaflet map, and also by providing base classes that can be customized to build a web map for your specific situation. This presentation will present and demonstrate the AWM and PolarMap.js and some real-world applications will also be discussed and demonstrated.

The recording of the webinar is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SyDSB5VM2Bw&list=PLUSJC5mjKZ9SIASpVJNWKWCSS9hVzjiFA&index=2
This webinar discussed the differences between the two OGC standards for IoT data exchange, i.e., OGC Sensor Observation Service and the OGC SensorThings API. It compares the two specifications in terms of interoperability, feature list, developer experience, efficiency, scalability/discoverability, and security. In summary, SOS and SensorThings are both interoperable. SensorThings can interoperate with SOS but not the other way around. SensorThings offers more features, better developer experience, better efficiency, and better scalability. In terms of security, SensorThings API can leverage the XML/SOAP security mechanisms by offering an SOS interface.

It is an exciting time in computing with the sea-change happening both on the technology fronts and application fronts. Networked sensors and embedded platforms with significant computational capabilities with access to backend utility computing resources, offer a tremendous opportunity to realize large-scale cyber-physical systems (CPS) to address the many societal challenges including emergency response, disaster recovery, surveillance, and transportation. Referred to as Situation awareness applications, they are latency-sensitive, data intensive, involve heavy-duty processing, run 24x7, and result in actuation with possible retargeting of sensors. Examples include surveillance deploying large-scale distributed camera networks, and personalized traffic alerts in vehicular networks using road and traffic sensing. This talk covers ongoing research in Professor Ramachandran’s embedded pervasive lab to provide system support for Internet of Things.

The differing ways to monitor and instrumentJonah Kowall
FullStack London July 15th, 2016
Monitoring is complicated, and in most organizations consists of far too many tools owned by many teams. These tools consist of monitoring tools each looking at a component myopically. These tools metrics and logs from devices and software emitting them. Increasingly modern companies are creating their own instrumentation, but there is a large base of generic instrumentation of software. Fixing monitoring issues requires people, process, and technology. In this talk we will cover many common issues seen in the real world. For example decisions on what should be monitored or collected from a technology and a business perspective. This requires process and coordination.
We will investigate what instrumentation is most scalable and effective across languages this includes the commonly used APIs and possibilities to capture data from common languages like Java, .NET and PHP, but we’ll also go into methods which work with Python, Node.js, and golang. We will cover browser and mobile instrumentation techniques. How these are done? which APIs are being used? What open source tools and frameworks can be leveraged? Most importantly how to coordinate and communicate requirements across your organization.
Attendees of this session will walk away with a clear understanding of:
What is instrumentation, and what do I instrument, collect, and store?
The understanding of overhead and how this can be accomplished on common software stacks?
How to work with application owners to collect business data.
How correlation works in custom open source or packaged monitoring tools.
Yuktix was invited to give a small talk in Open data meet, Bangalore on the features of Bangalore open weather network, about the IOT device, environmental sensor, how data is captured, stored and published. Yuktix also released that very soon, we are going to launch a Python SDK using which any one can access Bangalore open weather network data just by writing a 10 line python code.

As millions of embedded devices get connected to the cloud, it becomes crucial for the teams monitoring the performance of their production systems to get insight into the edge device’s health, and proactively fix problems before the news hits the front page of New York Times. As connected things move into traditional businesses like homes, retail, and industries - the traditional device management and diagnostic tools clash with backend enterprise performance management systems. This talk given at OpenIoTSummit in San Digeo covers best practices on how to bridge the device performance metrics with backend performance analysis to provide a unified view of a connected world.
JavaOne 2015 - CON6489 - Smart Open Spaces Powered by Low Cost ComputersJorge Hidalgo
By Jorge Hidalgo & Julio Palma. San Francisco Oct 27th, 2015.
Single-board computers such as the Raspberry Pi are cheap, small, and cute, but they have also shown that they are powerful enough to drive interesting ideas at a fraction of the cost of other, more “traditional” hardware solutions. This session covers how Java ME and Java SE technologies can power solutions for managing open spaces (such as museums, department stores, hypermarkets, airports, train stations, and offices) in a cost-effective manner. Combining Java, the Raspberry Pi, and Bluetooth LE and other sensors makes it easy to build a platform to track personal devices as they are carried through an area and analyze movement patterns, hot zones, and real-time 3-D information to help drive better visitor/customer/user interactions.
The modern IT stack has become diverse and distributed, and it’s increasingly challenging to manage heterogeneous platforms and multi-vendor devices. Customers are looking to the cloud and APM to help address these hurdles, as well as accelerate IT transformation.
But migrating to the cloud will take time, it won’t make infrastructure ‘just disappear’, and legacy workloads are going to remain part of the enterprise reality for many. In addition, while APM will continue to be increasingly important, all applications are not the same and an application is still not equal to a digital business service.
Watch this webinar as John Worthington, a service management expert and Director of Product Marketing for eG Innovations, continues our Shift-Left series. You can learn:
• Why domain expertise is important when defining monitoring requirements
• What analytics are useful from a monitoring and observability context
• How end-to-end monitoring with converged application and infrastructure performance can drive ITSM and DevOps integration
Unified Cloud Performance Monitoring - The Need of The HoureG Innovations
Are you monitoring your cloud and hybrid infrastructure to achieve end-to-end performance visibility? Does your current approach in monitoring provide you with the width and depth for the level of granularity to identify a problem before users are impacted or to help you reduce the time to isolate and diagnose the root cause?
Join this webinar to help you decide how to better manage different types of cloud practices like private, public, hybrid and traditional data centers with a single console as eG Innovations share best practices to manage performance issues across these infrastructures
Scope:
- Determine the critical requirements while migrating to the cloud.
- How to assure cross-cloud delivery of critical IT services?
- Does the native cloud monitoring suffice everyone's needs?
- Need of a comprehensive unified cloud monitoring solution and features
