This paper examines behavior-based safety program in a massive construction site. Methods: For t...

Domain-specific Internet of Things (IoT) applications are becoming more and more popular. They process data coming from sensor measurements. Adding semantic annotations to the sensory observations and measurements can allow to reason on data via logical rules. Stemming from Linked Open Data and Linked Open Vocabularies, we have designed sensor-based Linked Open Rules (S-LOR). S-LOR allows explo...

T HE Sandhill Crane (Grus canadensis) nests on the low, wet coastal tundra near the mouth of the McConnell River (60” 50’ N, 94” 25’ W) , on the western shore of Hudson Bay. During studies of geese and jaegers we have made many casual observations of cranes. Although adult cranes are conspicuous due to their large size and loud calls, the nests and young are very difficult to locate. Since the ...

Field spectroscopy has undergone a remarkable growth over the past two decades in terms of use and application to different scientific disciplines. This work presents an important step forward to improve the interoperability for the spectral library interchange in the field spectroscopy scientific community, by establishing an XML-based metadata system using published International Organization...
