Description


With the advent of smart cities, more and more physical phenomena are being measured, captured and monitored digitally. This provides copious data - especially in the communities that have adopted smart cities technology. As many communities are also opening their data to the public now, it begs the question: how to manage and open smart cities data so that it is beneficial and useful to the user.

About the speaker



Steve's goal is to disrupt the silos of the Internet of Things by creating, using, and implementing open and interoperable standards for device-cloud communications and cloud-cloud communications. Steve is currently the Standard Working Group Chair of the Open Geospatial Consortium SensorThings API.

The OGC SensorThings API is an OGC candidate standard for providing an open and unified way to interconnect IoT devices, data, and applications over the Web. The SensorThings API is an open standard, builds on Web protocols and applies an easy-to-use REST-like style. The result is to provide a uniform way to expose the full potential of the Internet of Things.
