NOTE: the example links are this page are currently not active but still provide examples of output results and informative videos. We hope to have these live again soon.
This document is in support of the SOFWERX CPO 23 OSH-CDB Project. The following is a listing of requests and samples of requests to receive data from sensors used in the SOFWERX and TE20 Projects. These examples show a wide variety of Off-the-Shelf sensors being able to be integrated into a Common Operating Picture (COP) through access to an OpenSensorHub (OSH) Cloud node. The request/response examples below are actual OGC Sensor Web Enabled (SWE) compliant requests for real-time or archived observation data from an active OSH node.
All visualization/mapping views are real-time screen captures of a COP client, built using the OSH Web Client Toolkit. The 3D rendering and geospatial mapping is supported by Cesium.js while the base maps and 3D terrain/buildings are provided by Cesium and Vricon and served through Cesium 3D Tiles technology.
