SFI Smart Ocean Data and Application Platform

The SFI Smart Ocean Data and Application Platform is the cloudhub for data flow in the SFI Smart Ocean digital eco-system interconnecting sensors and data services. The first version of the platform cloud-services was completed at the end of 2023, and has been deployed consuming data flows from the Aanderaa sensor hub and the WSense underwater sensor network at the Austevoll test-site. Norwegian Defence Research Establishment (FFI) has also performed initial tests delivering data from NILUS to the platform.
The first version of the platform provides an MQTT-based messaging service for providing and consuming real-time data streams, and a REST APIs-based data space service based on noSQL database technology for long-term storage and retrieval of historical data time series. The development of the platform services also covers the design and implementation of the SFI Smart Ocean data model and format for time series data. Work completed in relation to the platform also includes an improved version of the SFI Smart Ocean data explorer based on NORCE Enlighten, evaluation and review of the WSense cloud API, integration studies concerning the NMDC infrastructure, and initial experiments with data sets from Oslofjorden provided by Kongsberg Discovery.
