Sensor Schema Editor

The Sensor Schema Editor allow users to seamlessly generate RDF descriptions for their sensors. The schema editor uses an intuitive web-based interface to capture user's sensor description such as sensor type, name, location etc. The schema editor will have the following features

• Sensor Type Editor
• Sensor Instance Editor

Sensor Type Editor: The sensor type editor allows users to define new Sensor Types e.g. a Weather Station sensor that observes temperature and humidity.

Sensor Instance Editor: The sensor instance editor allows users to create new sensor instance based on a sensor type. E.g. a weather station sensor type names OpenIoTWeatherStation that is installed at a given location (lat,lng) and has a owner etc.

The Schema editor follows the Object Oriented principles. The Sensor Type refers to a class that describes the features of of a class of sensors while the Sensor Instance refers to the actual instance/object of the sensor class type. The sensor type editor enables the generation of new ontology concepts by dynamically extending the OpenIoT ontology.

The Schema editor is developed in JSF and deployed on JBOSS AS 7.1.1.
