چکیده

GetThere is a real-time passenger information system (RTPI) for rural areas that uses a citizen sensing approach to acquire information from public transport users. This paper describes the use of ontologies in GetThere to represent and integrate citizen sensors with data required to provide RTPI (e.g. timetable and route descriptions). The service architecture used to manage semantic sensor data is also described.

Short Paper: Addressing the Challenges of Semantic Citizen-Sensing

The challenges of the sensor web have been well documented, and the use of appropriate semantic web technologies promises to offer potential solutions to some of these challenges (for example, how to represent sensor data, integrate it with other data sets, publish it, and reason with the data streams). To date a large amount of work in this area has focused on sensor networks based on“traditio...

Passenger Interface Systems in Modern Railway Application: A Dedicated Passenger Information System for Istanbul Tramway

After 1860’s the railway systems has started to be used in urban transportation in the world. However, especially after the 1950’s, automobile usage has been increased quickly. Thus the dense of transportation has started to move from railway systems to the ones with rubber tire vehicles in Istanbul. Traffic density in urban transportation has started to be experienced since 1950 with the incre...

Closing the loop - From citizen sensing to citizen actuation

“Human-in-the-loop” sensing or citizen sensing as a method for collecting, analysing, and mining information about events is becoming more mainstream. In this work, we aim to utilise the concept of citizen sensors but also introduce the theory of citizen actuation. Citizen sensors observe, report, and collect data – we propose by supporting these citizen sensors with methods to affect their sur...

Citizen Observatories and the New Earth Observation Science

Earth observation is diversifying, and now includes new types of systems, such as citizen observatories, unmanned aerial vehicles and wireless sensor networks. However, the Copernicus Programme vision of a seamless chain from satellite data to usable information in the hands of decision makers is still largely unrealized, and remote sensing science lacks a conceptual framework to explain why. T...
