i. Preface
The primary focus of SensorML is to define processes and processing components associated with the measurement and post-measurement transformation of observations.
This specification is one of five engineering specifications produced under OGC’s Sensor Web Enablement SWE activity, which is being executed under OGC’s Interoperability
Program. The initial version was produced during OGC Web Services OWS 1.1 Initiative, conducted in 2001. The previous version was produced under the OGC Web
Services OWS 3.0 Initiative, conducted March 2005 - October 2005. This version is in response to recommendations during the Release for Public Comment April – August
2006, as well as efforts that have been continued since the OWS 3 initiatives and during the OWS 4 Initiative, conducted May 2006 – December 2006. This document provides
version 1.0 of the SensorML core specification and supersedes all previous document versions including 05-086r3.
ii. Document Terms and Definitions
This document uses the specification terms defined in Subclause 5.3 of [OGC 05-008], which is based on the ISOIEC Directives, Part 2. Rules for the structure and drafting of
