This Recommendation specifies a SensorThings application programming interface (API) which provides an open standard-based and geospatial-enabled framework to interconnect Internet of things devices, data, and applications over the Web.

The scope of this Recommendation includes:

− SensorThings API entities and relevant properties, including thing, location, datastream, sensor, observations, etc.;

− SensorThings service interface for requesting data;

− SensorThings sensing operations, including reading, creating, updating and deleting;

− SensorThings batch processing requests and relevant responses, and extensions for multidatastream, data array and Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT).
