摘要： The world-wide sensor web has become a very useful technique for monitoring the physical world at spatial and temporal scales that were previously impossible. Yet we believe that the full potential of sensor web has thus far not been revealed. In order to harvest the world-wide sensor web’s full potential, a geospatial cyberinfrastructure is needed to store, process, and deliver large amount of sensor data collected worldwide. In this paper, we first define the issue of the sensor web long tail followed by our view of the world-wide sensor web architecture. Then, we introduce the Geospatial Cyberinfrastructure for Environmental Sensing (GeoCENS) architecture and explain each of its components. Finally, with demonstration of three real-world powered-by-GeoCENS sensor web applications, we believe that the GeoCENS architecture can successfully address the sensor web long tail issue and consequently realize the world-wide sensor web vision. 其他題名： Sensors (Basel) 出版者： Switzerland: MDPI AG 出版日期： 2013-10-02 出處： Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2013-10, Vol.13 (10), p.13402-13424 資源來源： Publicly Available Content Database 版權： Copyright MDPI AG 2013 版權： 2013 by the authors; licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. 2013 識別號： ISSN: 1424-8220 識別號： EISSN: 1424-8220 識別號： DOI: 10.3390/s131013402 識別號： PMID: 24152921
