ISO/TR 19167 facilitates an understanding of the Ubiquitous Public Access (UPA) context information model to establish a ubiquitous public access-to-geographic information (GI) environment.
In addition, ISO/TR 19167 illustrates how the UPA context information model is designed and implemented to provide an air quality information service from a geographic information system (GIS)- based air quality information system.
In ISO/TR 19167, the high-level design of an air quality information system for the user to easily access air quality in real-time, and to contribute to air quality monitoring data for participating in societal environmental decision making is presented.
ISO/TR 19167 on UPA GIS for air quality is useful for:
In ISO/TR 19167, an air quality information system has been developed. The ubiquitous public access to geographic information is a geographic information service for the general public to easily access and produce geographic data or information in a ubiquitous computing environment.
Conforming to this ISO/TR 19167, the UPA context information model is employed to systematically associate air quality data from various information sources (e.g., physical sensor measurements, subjective citizen's opinions, and semantic social media data). The UPA context information model is also used to formulate air quality information services.
With ISO/TR 19167, the UPA to-GI environment aims to enable the general user to have easy and seamless access to geographic data and services regardless of their locations and computing devices.
