Abstract
Sensors and networks are key components in building distributed sensor networks nation-wide for detecting weapons of mass destruction and monitoring and protecting critical infrastructure such as airports, bridges, buildings, railways, utility, and water supplies. Tens of thousands of sensors will be connected through wired and wirless networks for communicating and sharing sensor data and information among government agencies and private enterprises in order to effectively protect people and property. Open, standardized sensor interfaces and snesor data formats are needed to enable effective integration, access, fusion, and use of sensor-derived data in critical homeland security (HLS) applications. This paper discusses some open standards that enable rapid and seamless sensor interconnection, integration, discovery, access, and usage within and across systems, networks, and enterprises through Web access.Citation
