Sensor grid
open-in-new
<p>A sensor grid integrates <a href="/facts/Wireless_sensor_networks/r5LIAVsU">wireless sensor networks</a> with <a href="/facts/Grid_computing/2GQhzN5l">grid computing</a> concepts to enable real-time data collection and the sharing of computational and storage resources for sensor data processing and management. It is an enabling technology for building large-scale infrastructures, integrating heterogeneous sensor, data and computational resources deployed over a wide area, to undertake complicated surveillance tasks such as <a href="/facts/Environmental_monitoring/ScUSz2ga">environmental monitoring</a>. </p>
