Representing Geo-Engineering Data from Instruments and Transducers

Toll, David G.

This paper examines ways to store and exchange data from geotechnical instruments and tranducers, as used in the field and the laboratory. The discussion is intended to form part of the on-going debate about standard ways to represent geo-engineering data in electronic form. Data representation standards such as GML (Geography Markup Language), SensorML and TransducerML are considered for their applicability to geo-engineering and for compatibility with work underway in the geo-engineering community (GEF, AGS, NEES and DIGGS). It is concluded that SensorML can be applied in geotechnical engineering even though it has greater complexity than is needed for many commercial geo-engineering applications. An example is given of its use for cone penetration test (CPT) data.
