Abstract

Sensor Web deployment is by nature a spatial problem since nodes are highly constrained by the geographic characteristics of the environment. Therefore, there is a need for an efficient modelling paradigm to address the issue of SW deployment taking into consideration the constraints of the geographic space and knowledge it provides to support their autonomous decision making capabilities. In this paper we propose a knowledge-based framework to support the simulation of SW deployments in Informed Virtual Geographic Environments (VGE) using multi-agent geosimulation techniques. This framework builds on our previous works on Informed Virtual Geographic Environments, on spatially reasoning agents and on qualitative reasoning about geo-simulation results. The framework is illustrated with a scenario of a sensor web deployment for weather monitoring purposes.
