"Standards-based description of environmental sensor metadata, including provenance, is paramount to automated data discovery, access, archival, processing, as well as quality control and assessment."
The X-DOMES pilot project will leverage existing relationships with large NSF-funded data management programs, EarthCube building blocks and working groups, and environmental sensor manufacturers and consortia. The project will establish a community of sensor manufacturers and other stakeholders to provide a unifying approach to describing sensors and observations across geo-science domains. Built on an existing sensor metadata model that references registered, standards-based vocabularies, the X-DOMES pilot project will provide a suite of tools, built upon community-adopted standards of the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) and World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) to demonstrate and facilitate the generation of metadata documents that are discoverable and accessible on-line and/or directly from onboard sensor descriptions. We will also demonstrate mechanisms to associate the data with the metadata through standards-based web services. With vendor-ready tools implemented throughout a broad-based community, the X-DOMES Network will lay the foundation for the development of and adoption of interoperable access to much needed content-rich sensor metadata.

The ESIP Community Ontology Registry can be used to create resolvable links to key terms in describing sensors, such as sensorType, observableProperty, property, process, characteristic and capability. These are terms that can be referenced in SensorML documents.
Example SWE 2.0 content can be viewed below:
RDI Workhorse - Below is a link to a generic T-RDI Workhorse 1200 and demonstrates what we call an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) document.
MVCO Workhorse - Content describes a "typeOf" RDI-Workhorse, demonstrating how it was configured and deployed (ConDEP):
ADCP Observation System - Content describes the whole system (OEM/ConDEP/Processing):NOTE: in progress [1]
