The Sensor Observation Service (SOS)<br />

SUPSI - Institute of Earth Sciences, CH-6952 Canobbio (milan.antonovic@supsi.ch)<br />

The SOS (Sensor Observation Service) aggregates readings from live, in-situ and remote sensors. The service provides an interface<br />

to make sensors and sensor data archives accessible via an interoperable web based interface.<br />

The SOS is part of the OGC’s SWE (Sensor Web Enablement) group of specifications.<br />

The SWE Working Group, is establishing the interfaces and protocols that will enable a “Sensor Web” through which applications<br />

and services will be able to access sensors of all types over the Web.<br />

This presentation introduce the main characteristic of all the SWE specifications and then explain extensively the SOS standard.<br />

The SWE group of specifications are:<br />

1. Observations & Measurements (O&M)<br />

2. Sensor Model Language (SensorML)<br />

3. Transducer Markup Language (TML)<br />

4. Sensor Observation Service (SOS)<br />

5. Sensor Planning Service (SPS)<br />

6. Sensor Alert Service (SAS)<br />

7. Web Notification Service (WNS)<br />
