12. Helping the World to Communicate Geographically Copyright © 2009 Open Geospatial Consortium Open architecture for Smart and Interoperable networks in Risk management based on Insitu Sensors OSIRIS is a Sixth Framework Programme Integrated Project of the European Commission, aligned with GMES (Global Monitoring for Environment and Security). OSIRIS provides a Service Oriented Architecture based on standards, especially relying on and improving the Sensor Web Enablement (SWE). This architecture provides functionality ranging from in‐situ earth observation to user applications.

13. Helping the World to Communicate Geographically Copyright © 2009 Open Geospatial Consortium OSIRIS Application Objectives Within OSIRIS four key areas of major environmental risk are investigated: –forest fires: early detection of forest fires and efficient handling of the crisis situation if a fire occurs –industrial risks: more reliable fire detection by combining various sensor types and thus especially reducing the number of false alarms –unexpected fresh water pollution: sensor networks for detecting natural arsenic concentration as well as accidental hydrocarbon pollutions –air pollution in urban areas: using mobile as well as fixed sensors linked to simulation models for assessing the air quality http://tws01.terranovaws.it/osiris/doc/Invitation_OSIRIS_Works hop.pdf
