OSIRIS provides a Service Oriented Architecture based on standards and delivering functions ranging from in-situ earth observation to user services. The programme is structured around four key areas of major environmental risk: forest fires, industrial risks, unexpected fresh water pollution and air pollution in urban areas. <p/> The OSIRIS solution will be deployed in these areas, leading to four live experiments, complementary in: <ul> <li/>Environmental concerns. <li/>Time constraints. <li/>Sensors - based on mobile or fixed platforms. <li/>Data produced by the sensors. </ul> Addressing smart deployment, use and reconfiguration of in-situ sensor systems, the OSIRIS proposed architecture is scalable to allow for easy integration of new sensor data to further improve the quality of service. <h3>More information on <a class="glossary-term" href="http://www.sany-ip.org/sany_acronyms/osiris_ip"><acronym title="OSIRIS IP: OSIRIS (Open architecture for Smart and Interoperable networks in Risk management based on In-situ Sensors) is a Sixth Framework Programme Integrated Project of the European Commission, aligned with GMES (Global Monitoring for Environment and Security).">OSIRIS IP</acronym></a>:</h3> <a href="/go/www.osiris_fp6.eu" >http://www.osiris-fp6.eu/</a> <h3>SANY and OSIRIS</h3> SANY and OSIRIS IP are both actively pursuing standardization of sensor network interfaces through <a class="glossary-term" href="http://www.sany-ip.org/glossary#term89"><acronym title="OGC: [OGC] The Open Geospatial Consortium, Inc.® (more info)">OGC</acronym></a>.
