The Sensor Web community has published a beta release of the 52°North reference implementation of the OGC SOS 2.0 standard, the new 52°North SOS 4.0.0. It is a completely new implementation of the 52°North SOS with some improvements compared to the 3.5 SOS development line.
Release of the OX-Framework 1.12
After several months of work, we are happy to announce today the release of the OX-Framework 1.12*! Go ahead and check it out here.
Looking at the development during the past years, starting back in 2006, the OX-Framework (OWS Access Framework) was designed to be usable as a basis for Java applications providing easy access to all kinds of OGC Web Services. With the re-design of the OX-Framework to its current 1.12 version, we shifted the perspective of the OX-Framework more to a collection of API modules. These modules represent re-usable middleware components and focus on the interaction with Sensor Web services. Thereby, the OX-Framework still greatly facilitates the development of client as well as server applications. Today, 52°North’s latest SPS implementation, the SOS Importer and our various Sensor Web clients already utilize the OX-Framework 1.12.
SOS Administrator: A new user experience starts now!
The end of Google Summer of Code is a new beginning of the SOS Administrator. This year, the SOS Administrator project aimed to improve the user experience with 52°North Sensor Observation Service (SOS) and make its administration more intuitive. We tried to achieve that goal by making 52°North SOS installations just a matter of few clicks. First stepping stones were also laid out to facilitate SOS administrators by getting together useful features within a adminstrative backend.
The web-based SOS Installer is a really handy tool for inexperienced users who want to try the 52°North SOS, but also an equally useful tool for experienced users who appreciate a simpler and quicker installation procedure. You deploy the standard SOS web archive and visit the installer page. The wizardmore >
GIS linked to WoT
With this blog post Iwould like to wrap up my Google Summer of Code work for 52°North. And since pictures say more than a thousand words, I prepared a video about my project “GIS link to the Web of Things“.
The video aims at introducing the Arduino SenseBox’s various features. The final version fulfills the pre-development objective of the “GIS link to the Web of Things”. “Things” refer to the Local Sensor Module of Arduino which is bridged to standard GIS software, such as Google Earth and the ESRI JavaScript API-based clients. In layman language, the SenseBox stores sensor measurements and other information locally and provides it to client software via the Geoservices REST API in JSON or KML encoding.
Features
The SenseBox features can be divided into three functional parts:more >
