  1. S@NYSensors AnywhereFP6-033564 Adding Value to Geospatial Data with SensorSA Fusion Services Final SANY Event, Linz, 19 November 2009 Stuart E. Middleton IT Innovation Centre, University of Southampton

  2. What is the value of data fusion? Question What is data fusion? How does it add value to datasets?

  3. Outline of presentation • Data fusion [3] • What is data fusion? • Value proposition for data fusion • What is generic data fusion? • OGC standards and SANY fusion services [1] • How can the OGC standards help us? • Fusion services [2] • How does a fusion service work? • Visualization • Summary

  4. Data fusion (1/3) • What is data fusion? • Fusion of multiple data sources • Integration of data sources • Inference of new data from existing sources • Input from models as well as raw data • Data driven processing • Prediction of new values • Interpolation of missing values • Modelling of data • Example – bathing water quality assessment Data Fusion Impact assessment >> close beach? << Beach attendance / day Bathing water quality model Microbial contamination / day

  5. Data fusion (2/3) • Value proposition • Fusion techniques add value to existing data • Knowledge squared value proposition • The whole is larger than the sum of the parts • Examples of adding value in SANY • Spatial fusion • Data : ground displacement measurements [Dresden] • Value: interpolation over whole areas • Temporal fusion • Data: historical water salinity measurements [Falmouth] • Value: prediction of future salinity values • Data modelling • Data: air pollution measurements [Linz] • Value: state space model of stochastic trends and daily cycles of NO2 K2

  6. Data fusion (3/3) • What about generic data fusion? • We are developing generic fusion techniques within SANY • Separating the configuration and data from the algorithm itself • Automating fusion pre-processing using O&M metadata • Why? • Lowers the cost of developing fusion algorithms • Same algorithm can be re-used for different datasets • Plug and play lowers cost of integrating new datasets

  7. OGC standards and SANY fusion services (1/1) • How can the OGC standards help us? • Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) • http://www.opengeospatial.org/ • Processing protocols • WebProcessing Standard (WPS) • Sensor Planning Service (SPS) • Data syntax • Observation & Measurement (O&M) • Why? • Standard interfaces lowers the cost of integrating third party software

  8. Fusion services (1/2) • How does a fusion service work? • Pre-processing • data aggregation, syntax checking etc • Fusion processing at different levels • Post-processing • Result formatting, storage on external servers etc Pre-processing, post-processing Patterns, trends, seasonality Level of Fusion Relationships, cause and effect Prediction, uncertainty, environment model

  9. Fusion services (2/2) Wind speed and direction • Visualization • Google Earth, Google Maps • Excel, Matlab • SANY SSE web portal & mapping diagram service (ETHZ) Profiles make fusion setup easier Choose property : NO2, O3, Cloud Cover, Wind, Air Temperature etc Setup algorithm params : Lag, Sill, Nugget etc (or use defaults) Run the fusion service SANY : Spatial, Temporal, Spatial-temporal, Causal correlation Sensor locations Ground movement

  10. Summary • Data fusion • Adds value to your data • Aggregation, interpolation, prediction • Generic fusion lowers costs • Algorithm reuse • Dataset plug and play • OGC standards and SANY fusion services • Standards reduce cost of integration of third party software • Fusion services • SANY provides support for different levels of fusion • Visualization of results using third party tools K2 SEE THE DEMO
