Whole Journey Experience of Internet Things Through SenSourcing and Space Technologies

The requirements for location awareness involve Multiple Global Navigation Satellites Systems (MultiGNSS) for the determination of an item’s latitude, longitude and altitude, with any given positioning satellite available (GPS, GALILEO, GLONASS, GBAS, etc.), so to include all potential territories, as well as the use of GIS data for identifying the static environment around the item’s position and the spatial relations between the nearby physical objects (e.g. buildings indicating urban trails, coastline indicating island routes etc.). Through the situation awareness, the WJETSS platform will be able to detect hazardous or inefficient situations (e.g. landslides, traffic jams etc.) based on near real-time information about events and the temporal status of the nearby objects for the monitored item via EO data from EUMETSAT and Copernicus SENTINELS. The users are from the food distibution chain and the dangerous cargoes transportation sectors.
