Interoperability

Interoperability is a central aspect of the SmartOcean platform which provided data provision and consumption via standardised REST and MQTT cloud APIs, and data and meta-data formats for service integration

Work is currently ongoing on standardising a data- and meta-data format for the SmartOcean platform to be used both internally in the platform and for exposing data. The figure below shows the current basic data model being used by the SmartOcean platform.

An implementation of the data format in Python is available for consortium members:
