Sensor technologies are improving fast: sensors are being developed to record more types of phe-
nomena in improving precisions, and they are becoming less expensive. The vision is that sensor
networks deployed across large spaces, attached to important infrastructure, and embedded in our
everyday environments, will become an ubiquitous element of the world’s information infrastruc-
ture. The apparent bottleneck in reaching this vision efficiently and cost effectively is software
development. In this thesis, we discuss an integrated service-oriented architecture for collecting,
archiving, analyzing and visualizing sensor network data. The framework has been deployed and
evaluated in two applications: SensorGIS and SmartCondo, designed for sensor networks deployed
in outdoor and indoor spaces. -
