Linked Sensor Data

LinkedSensorData is an RDF dataset containing expressive descriptions of ~20,000 weather stations in the United States. The data originated at MesoWest, a project within the Department of Meterology at the University of Utah that has been aggregating weather data since 2002.[1] On average, there are about five sensors per weather station measuring phenomena such as temperature, visibility, precipitation, pressure, wind speed, humidity, etc. In addition to location attributes such as latitude, longitude, and elevation, there are also links to locations in Geonames that are near each weather station. This sensors description dataset is now part of the LOD.

Linked Observation Data

LinkedObservationData is an RDF dataset containing expressive descriptions of hurricane and blizzard observations in the United States. The data originated at MesoWest, a project within the Department of Meterology at the University of Utah that has been aggregating weather data since 2002.[2] The observations collected include measurements of phenomena such as temperature, visibility, precipitation, pressure, wind speed, humidity, etc. The dataset includes observations within the entire United States during the time periods that several major storms were active -- including Hurricane Katrina, Ike, Bill, Bertha, Wilma, Charley, Gustav, and a major blizzard in Nevada in 2002. These observations are generated by weather stations described in the LinkedSensorData dataset introduced above. Currently, this dataset contains around one billion triples.
