Abstract:  The drive toward smart cities and the rising adoption of personal sensors are leading to a torrent of sensor information. Whilst systems exist for storing and managing sensor data, the real value of such data is the insight which can be generated from it. However there is currently no platform which enables sensor data to be taken from collection, through use to produce useful data products. Such a platform is an important research question in the field of big data and sensor network. This paper explores key challenges and requirement in this field and provides a response through a sensor data platform WikiSensing, which can support the whole life cycle from sensor data to final product via elastic sensor data repository, flexible sensor data query, easy-to-use sensor application development environment, and efficient data product marketplace. The platform will enable rapid development of applications built on sensor data by using data fusion and the integration and composition of models to form novel workflows. This paper presents the key features of WikiSensing, and explores how this enables value to be derived from sensor data efficiently.
