“…The DT timestamps data and stores it into a ring buffer, which enables Ti-Vo 6 -like features for data retrieval and control. Our analysis showed that the DT provides a high-speed transmission process for a large amount of data and multiple data streaming processes [10]. …”

Smart Environmental Measurements and Analysis Technologies (SEMAT) is a multidisplinary project aimed at constructing smart sensor networks that can be deployed in aquatic settings. The SEMAT system has been developed based on the Sensor Abstraction Layer (SAL). SAL is a middleware integration platform which provides an interface for managing sensors, and viewing the sensed data regardless of the technologies involved. SAL has a graphical user interface application tool for user interaction, referred as the SAL-Client. The interface provides remote-access to the functionalities of SAL. However, the existing design for the SAL-Client has many limitations which detracts from its usefulness. This paper introduces the SEMAT sensor network management system and describes how it has evolved from the SAL-Client based on practical usage in a real world deployment. The current system design for SEMAT has been moving forward to provide support for the Open Geospatial Consortium Sensor Web Enablement standards (OGC-SWE) and also the current popular data streaming/buffering technologies. The SEMAT sensor network management system automates the process for data collection, calibration, quality assurance, data management, reports and maintenance.

There is an increasing need for environmental measurement systems to further science and thereby lead to improved policies for sustainable management. Marine environments are particularly hostile and extremely difficult for deploying sensitive measurement systems. As a consequence the need for data is greatest in marine environments, particularly in the developing economies/regions. Expense is typically the most significant limiting factor in the number of measurement systems that can be deployed, although technical complexity and the consequent high level of technical skill required for deployment and servicing runs a close second. This paper describes the Smart Environmental Monitoring and Analysis Technologies (SEMAT) project and the present development of the SEMAT technology. SEMAT is a “smart” wireless sensor network that uses a commodity-based approach for selecting technologies most appropriate to the scientifically driven marine research and monitoring domain/field. This approach allows for significantly cheaper environmental observation systems that cover a larger geographical area and can therefore collect more representative data. We describe SEMAT's goals, which include: (1) The ability to adapt and evolve; (2) Underwater wireless communications; (3) Short-range wireless power transmission; (4) Plug and play components; (5) Minimal deployment expertise; (6) Near real-time analysis tools; and (7) Intelligent sensors. This paper illustrates how the capacity of the system has been improved over three iterations towards realising these goals. The result is an inexpensive and flexible system that is ideal for short-term deployments in shallow coastal and other aquatic environments.
