1. SensorMap: A Web Site for Sensors World-Wide Suman Nath, Jie Liu, Jessica Miller, Feng Zhao, Andre Santanche

2.  The aim is to provide a web site that allows publishers to publish their sensor data  By using Geo-centric web site such as Google Map and Windows Live Local, we can visualize the spatially and geographically related data over map interface  This results number of maps-based interfaces with specific sort of data placed on the map  Different data will be placed on the same map, which means the web site will include mutually compatible data  The data will be real time sensor data  Publishing data will be trivial and easy task  Basic useful functionalities such as querying live sensors based on location will be provided

3. SenseWeb will consist of four components: GeoDB : Database housing sensor metadata DataHub : Send data directly via URL or using web service provided Aggregator : Sensor representation icon creation (temperature etc.) SensorMap GUI : Graphical User Interface SenseWeb lets end-users: To pose queries by drawing geometric shapes (e.g. a route), by specifying keywords and sensor types(e.g. parking sensors) To save views

4. Design Challenges: There might be more than one sensor network for the same area and same purpose (e.g. temperature) Publishers' sensor networks might not give correct data Used Geo-centric web site (e.g. Google maps) might not include details about sensor networks' region System Challenges: If a problem occurs in used Geo-centric web site, system will not work System needs sensor network publishers
