Using multi-sensor data fusion technology, ARM technology, ZigBee technology, GPRS, and other technologies, an intelligent environmental monitoring system is studied and developed. The SCM STC12C5A60S2 is used to collect the main environmental parameters in real time intelligently. The collected data is transmitted to the central controller LPC2138 through the ZigBee module ATZGB-780S5, and then the collected data is transmitted to the management computer through the GPRS communication module SIM300; thus, the real-time processing and intelligent monitoring of the environmental parameters are realized. The structure of the system is optimized; the suitable fusion model of environmental monitoring parameters is established; the hardware and the software of the intelligent system are completed. Each sensor is set up synchronously at the end of environmental parameter acquisition. The method of different value detection is used to filter out different values. The authors obtain the reliability of the sensor through the application of the analytic hierarchy process. In the analysis and processing of parameters, they proposed a new data fusion algorithm by using the reliability, probability association algorithm, and evidence synthesis algorithm. Through this algorithm, the accuracy of environmental monitoring data and the accuracy of judging monitoring data are greatly improved.

This research proposes an algorithm using a process of integrating data from multiple sensors to measure the liquid capacity in real time regardless of the position of the liquid tank. The algorithm for measuring the capacity was created with a complementary filter using a Kalman filter in order to revise the level sensor data and IMU sensor data. The measuring precision of the proposed algorithm was assessed through repetitive experiments by varying the liquid capacity and the rotation angle of the liquid tank. The measurements of the capacity within the liquid tank were precise, even when the liquid tank was rotated. Using the proposed algorithm, one can obtain highly precise measurements, and it is affordable since an existing level sensor is used.

With the rapid development of the Internet of Things (IoT), a variety of sensor data are generated around everyone’s life. New research perspective regarding the streaming sensor data processing of the IoT has been raised as a hot research topic that is precisely the theme of this paper. Our study serves to provide guidance regarding the practical aspects of the IoT. Such guidance is rarely mentioned in the current research in which the focus has been more on theory and less on issues describing how to set up a practical system. In our study, we employ numerous open source projects to establish a distributed real time system to process streaming data of the IoT. Two urgent issues have been solved in our study that are (1) multisource heterogeneous sensor data integration and (2) processing streaming sensor data in real time manner with low latency. Furthermore, we set up a real time system to process streaming heterogeneous sensor data from multiple sources with low latency. Our tests are performed using field test data derived from environmental monitoring sensor data collected from indoor environment for system validation. The results show that our proposed system is valid and efficient for multisource heterogeneous sensor data integration and streaming data processing in real time manner.

This work presents the developments of representing a part of the city districts of Manchester, UK and Turin, IT initiated within the FP7 DIMMER project completed in 2016 and continued in the last years by the Center of Excellence GIS of CSI Piemonte. The DIMMER system integrates BIM (building information modelling) and district level 3D models with real-time data from sensors and user feedback to analyze and correlate buildings utilization and provide real-time feedback about energy-related behaviors. The emerging standard 3D Tiles endorsed by the OGC was applied to represent CityGML data of two districts of Turin, Italy and Manchester, UK. 3D Tiles allows for a high level of detail (LOD) visualization that displays increasing detail of geometric features and their alphanumeric properties. Currently, the OGC 3D Tiles technology is mature, and the OGC CityGML specification will be soon updated to version three, with the adoption of exciting innovations like the support of time-dependent properties defined Dynamizers.

In order to realize the real-time environmental monitoring for shipboard TT&C antenna-centrosome, this paper designs a monitoring system based on Modbus by analyzing current conditions, which contains sensor data acquisition terminal and video switcher. The designed system has many advantages, such as less project-related work, higher cost performance, convenient installation, easy debugging and etc. Actual application shows that temperature & humidity data and video information gathered meet the requirement need completely. Techniques in this paper can be referenced in other related fields.
