OGC SensorThings API v2

With the revision in OGC Observations, Measurements & Samples standard and the broader geospatial community's concerns in using SensorThings API for diverse environmental monitoring applications, this project focuses on advancing the standard for IoT sensor data management.

SensorThings API v2 Data Model (Core)

Objective

Revise the OGC SensorThings API official standard from v1.1 to v2

Description

With the revision in OGC Observations, Measurements & Samples standard and the broader geospatial community’s concerns in using SensorThings API for diverse environmental monitoring and sensing use cases, there is a need to revise the standard in order to align with the evolving requirements of the community as well as to stay closely aligned with OGC Observations, Measurements & Samples specification. The STA Standard Working Group meets weekly to discuss the changes and challenges associated with revising the standard.
