Sensor Data Abstraction and Utilization in Environmental Monitoring System based on Geosensor Network  

Jung, Young-Jin (Univ. of Maine Visiting Scholar)
Abstract
Environmental monitoring systems are widely developed for analyzing environment and understanding an ecosystem according to the advance of wireless communication and various sensing techniques. To extract useful information, it requires high cost for processing a query, because these systems have to handle huge volume of raw sensor data which is transmitted from a wide area in environmental monitoring applications. Besides, it is also hard to answer an user defined query which requests to check current and near future condition. In this paper, we propose the monitoring system structure for processing a user defined query for environmental monitoring. It also describes the utilization of sensor data filtering and abstraction model. The designed abstraction model which is based on the slope grid in GIS supports fast data access and update. To analyze condition, the extracted data from abstraction model of each sensor type is combined in a query processor. It is useful to provide meaningful information to users.
