CALL FOR PAPERS

*The First ACM SIGSPATIAL International Workshop on Sensor Web Enablement
2012 (SWE2012)
*Nov 6-9, 2012, Redondo Beach, CA, USA
http://sensorweb.geomatics.ucalgary.ca/swe2012/
Held in conjunction with
the 20th International Conference on Advances in Geographic Information
Systems (ACM SIGSPATIAL GIS 2012)
*IMPORTANT DATES
*
Abstract Submission Deadline: *August 3rd 2012*
Full Paper Submission Deadline: *August 10th 2012*
Notification of Acceptance: Sept 10th 2012
Registration & Camera-Ready Paper Due: September 23th 2012
*OBJECTIVE AND SCOPE
*
The Sensor Web envisions sensing resources (including both observations
made by sensors and sensors’ remote control capabilities) discoverable,
accessible, and controllable (when applicable) via the Web. Similar to the
W3C Web standards enabling the WWW, the Open Geospatial Consortium’s (OGC)
Sensor Web Enablement (SWE) standards enable researchers and developers to
build standards-compliant sensor web systems and services. The first
version of the SWE standards was made available by OGC in 2005, and the
second version was released in 2011. While the standards continue to
evolve, it is evident that governmental agencies, industry and academia are
realizing the Sensor Web vision by adopting and extending the SWE standards
and other emerging technologies such as semantics, Linked Data and cloud
computing etc.
Building on the success of previous SWE workshops, the SWE2012 workshop
aims to bring together sensor web experts to present and discuss the latest
ideas about the broadly defined Sensor Web, its infrastructure, relevant
algorithms and new innovative applications. TheSWE workshop also aims to
serve as a forum for Sensor Web users, developers and researchers to debate
and discuss the current state-of-the-art and to shape the future of the
Sensor Web. Real-world results and deployments of the sensor web system are
also welcomed and encouraged. The outcome of the workshop will result in
sharing best practices of building an interoperable sensor web for
research, education, and operational usage.
*TOPICS OF INTEREST

Modeling Domains
SWE Standards and Implementations including Private, Commercial, and Open
Source
SWE Implementations Benchmarks
SWE Enhancements and Extensions (including use of ontologies, support for
semantic annotations etc.)
Experiences and Potential Future Directions for SWE Standards
