So Once You've Networked the World, Then What?
Last week, HP and Shell announced their collaboration on a seismic sensing system that will couple many thousands of wireless sensors together in a bid to create a better tool for oil and gas exploration. And although this is the latest in a series of projects aiming to create very large systems of networked sensors, I haven't seen anywhere near as much discussion about what to do with the vast quantities of data that will ensue and, specifically, how to handle them. continued
