Abstract

This paper presents a component-based framework OceanSense which supports rapid development of marine environment monitoring application with multi-sensors. By decomposing systems into relatively independent, mature and reusable modules, component-based programming provides stability, reliability and extensibility compared to other programming methods. The framework covers kernel components for marine monitoring application, which are data management component, data transmission component, electronic nautical chart component, sensor communication component. OceanSense supports commonly used marine environment monitoring sensors, which increases its availability. A real project is carried on to validate the framework and result shows its availability.

Highlights

  • With the rapid development of society and economy, an increasing number of human activities have gradually destroyed the marine environment

  • The properties of those components can be set by visual interface in visual studio 2010 and the interfaces of those components can be called by using C#

  • Electronic nautical chart (ENC) component plays an important part in marine monitoring data demonstration

Summary

Introduction

With the rapid development of society and economy, an increasing number of human activities have gradually destroyed the marine environment. Maine environment monitoring is a vital problem and has increasingly attracted agreat deal of research and development attention. During the past few decades, various marine environment monitoring systems have been developed [1,2,3,4,5,6]. Base on decades of experiences on marine monitoring, a component-based framework for rapid development of marine environment monitoring application is proposed. Leveraging on large amount of related projects, commonly used sensors of different interfaces and manufacturers are summarized and catalogued. Multi-sensor supporting gives flexibility and extensibility of OceanSense. The framework architecture of OceanSense is presented. Three kernel components of OceanSense are described.
