| Abstract: An increasing number of platforms like Xively or ThingSpeak are available to manage ubiquitous sensor data enabling the Internet of Things. Strict data formats allow interoperability and informative visualizations, supporting the development of custom user applications. Yet, these strict data formats as well as the common feed-centric approach limit the flexibility of these platforms. We aim at providing a concept that supports data ranging from text-based formats like JSON to images and video footage. Furthermore, we introduce the concept of extensions, which allows to enrich existing data points with additional information, thus, taking a data point centric approach. This enables us to gain semantic and user specific context by attaching subjective data to objective values. This paper provides an overview of our architecture including concept, implementation details and present applications. We distinguish our approach from several other systems and describe two sensing applications namely AirProbe and WideNoise that were implemented for our platform. | |||||

| Abstract: <p>The development of ICT infrastructures has facilitated the emergence of new paradigms for looking at society and the environment over the last few years. Participatory environmental sensing, i.e. directly involving citizens in environmental monitoring, is one example, which is hoped to encourage learning and enhance awareness of environmental issues. In this paper, an analysis of the behaviour of individuals involved in noise sensing is presented. Citizens have been involved in noise measuring activities through the WideNoise smartphone application. This application has been designed to record both objective (noise samples) and subjective (opinions, feelings) data. The application has been open to be used freely by anyone and has been widely employed worldwide. In addition, several test cases have been organised in European countries. Based on the information submitted by users, an analysis of emerging awareness and learning is performed. The data show that changes in the way the environment is perceived after repeated usage of the application do appear. Specifically, users learn how to recognise different noise levels they are exposed to. Additionally, the subjective data collected indicate an increased user involvement in time and a categorisation effect between pleasant and less pleasant environments.</p> | |||||

In this paper, an analysis of the behaviour of individuals nvolved in noise sensing is presented.

The application as been open to be used freely by anyone and has been widely employed orldwide. In addition, several test cases have been organised in uropean countries. Based on the information submitted by users, n analysis of emerging awareness and learning is performed. The ata show that changes in the way the environment is perceived after epeated usage of the application do appear. Specifically, users earn how to recognise different noise levels they are exposed to. dditionally, the subjective data collected indicate an increased ser involvement in time and a categorisation effect between pleasant nd less pleasant environments. |

| Abstract: With the rising popularity of smart mobile devices, sensor data-based pplications have become more and more popular. Their users record ata during their daily routine or specifically for certain events. he application WideNoise Plus allows users to record sound samples nd to annotate them with perceptions and tags. The app is being sed to document and map the soundscape all over the world. The procedure f recording, including the assignment of tags, has to be as easy-to-use s possible. We therefore discuss the application of tag recommender lgorithms in this particular scenario. We show, that this task is undamentally different from the well-known tag recommendation problem n folksonomies as users do no longer tag fix resources but rather ensory data and impressions. The scenario requires efficient recommender lgorithms that are able to run on the mobile device, since Internet onnectivity cannot be assumed to be available. Therefore, we evaluate he performance of several tag recommendation algorithms and discuss heir applicability in the mobile sensing use-case. |
