Swiss Experiment
Bringing together cutting edge technology and environmental research
n [swɪs ɪkˈspɛrɪmənt]/[swɪs ɪkˈs]
Swiss Experiment, or SwissEx: an attempt to enable effective real-time environmental monitoring through wireless sensor networks and a common, modern, generic cyber-infrastructure. This infrastructure will be used to work efficiently and collaboratively in finding the key mechanisms in the triggering of natural hazards and efficiently distribute the information to increase public awareness.
Swiss Experiment consists of two distinct work packages:
- Development of innovative hardware and software technologies and their implementation for collaborative environmental research.
- An integrated, generic metadata and data storage solution with advanced metadata-based data manipulation and tagging (openly available for public usage).
- Self organising sensor networks with advanced in-network processing solutions.
- Development of existing sensors to take advantage of the latest in technology.
- Use of novel hardware and software technologies to enable improved hazard warning techniques.
- Usage of the advanced storage and query technologies developed under SwissEx to provide integration of sensors and models for hazard warning.
- Usage of new sensors and sensor networks to provide measurements on an unprecedented spatial and temporal scale.
- Comprehensive runoff assessments using the technologies above from precipitation forecasts through to runoff forecasts, modified in real-time by in-situ assessments.
