Carl,
You are correct. The IF SC also has the task of looking for
any other sensor standards work to identify gaps or overlaps. When that is done
we will make use of all the good work done to ensure the EDXL payload for
sensors is understandable.

Hi -
Sorry, but I need some help understanding the semantics of the use in this
TC of the term "sensor standards". IEEE 1451 has developed and
approved a class of sensor standards. ISO TC 204 is defining and seeking
approval of a set of abstract sensor interface and encoding standards for
telematics (in car sensor systems), and the OGC is defining and approving a set
of interface and encoding standards for discovery, access, description, and
tasking of sensors.
I do not think that the EM TC is looking to develop this class of
standards. I think what we are talking about are how to express information as
part of an EDXL payload about a sensor or a sensor observation that has been
provided by one of the standards mentioned above.
Am I correct?
Thanks for the help!
