Conclusions Internet of Things will be everywhere to make IoT information useful, location information is critical. we should use open geospatial standards to describe the IoT location information. OGC
Conclusions Internet of Things will be everywhere to make IoT information useful, location information is critical. we should use open geospatial standards to describe the IoT location information. Many IoT devices will be indoor, and many IoT applications will be indoor applications. OGC CityGML and Indoor GML provides a framework to describe indoor locations. OGC

OGC also provides encodings and web service interfaces for sensor observations and tasking e.g., OGC SensorThings API OGC
