An Extensible Data Enrichment Scheme for Providing Intelligent Services in Internet of Things Environments

Figure 2

The ThingsMetadata scheme provides fields for profiles and data types of sensing values to connect to real-world objects in the system using higher-level context information. Profiles can provide five types of datasets: common for describing things in the real world, access information to acquire live feeds from objects, sensor devices, user information, and data information for binding logical entities that are already described and be used again for different purposes.
