The project’s aim is to define rules to restrict access to SOS contents on the operation and parameter level. An introduction to the project can be found in the previous blog post. This goal is achieved with a nice graphical user interface to enable the admin user to manage permissions for a particular enforcement point, which is the connection point for the client instead of the original SOS endpoint.more >

Sensor Data Access for Rasdaman

Filed Under: 52°North, GSoC, Sensor Web Tagged With: DBMS, GSoC, Rasdaman, Sensor Observation Service, SOS, SWE

Project Description

Currently, the new 52°North SOS version 4.x supports data storage for many different Database Management Systems based on Hibernate, such as Postgres/PostGIS, Oracle/Oracle Spatial, or Microsoft SQL.

This project aims to connect Rasdaman as an alternative data storage backend to the 52°North SOS and explore storing array observations in the SOS. We currently explore the integration process and consider several alternatives:

create the internal data source representation of the SOS by implementing the 52°North SOS Rasdaman “data access objects”,
create Rasdaman-Hibernate mappings for 52°North SOS, e.g. by implementing a generic Rasdaman JDBC driver.

enviroCar UX Design

My project deals with the enviroCar Android application. The application connects with your car through an OBD bluetooth adapter and measures CO2 emission, fuel consumption, engine load and several other parameters. The parameters, such as CO2 emission and speed, are plotted in a chart against all the users who also use the enviroCar application. This helps to decide how ‘sustainable’ a driver you are (as shown in the image below). The data collected for a city can be used for showing CO2 hot spots in that city.

The image shows the comparison of speed and CO2 emission between a user ( rsh1103 ) and the rest of the users. — The image shows the comparison of speed and CO2 emission between a single user and the rest of the users.

ILWIS mobile app

I would like to introduce the project “Using the ILWIS framework for geo-data capture with a mobile application”. This is one of the Google Summer of Code projects hosted by 52°North.

The project is mentored by ITC since they are the developers of ILWIS-Objects. ILWIS-Objects is the next generation ILWIS, which is a GIS environment. The idea behind it is that it won’t be ‘just’ a desktop GIS application, but a framework for many different scenarios, applications and platforms.
