Sensor Web Technology Application for Environmental Monitoring

Pollution of the environment is a problem of the modern age. The technology developed and used over the past decades has left serious consequences on human environment and implied the need for resolving them. Preserving quality of water, air and soil are quite common issues in many countries. This paper presents one way of dealing with these challenges, based on sensor networks and the Sensor Web concept. The solution is given as GinisSense system. GinisSense is designed accordingly to Open Geospatial Consortium specifications and recommendations for the field of Sensor Web. This paper explains GinisSense architecture and presents its opportunities for environmental monitoring, preservation and protection.
