Cost and energy savings

Sensor networks are used in many fields and are crucial to our everyday living. However, metrology is facing unexplored challenges introduced by the recent developments in sensors, network architecture, in-situ self- and co-calibration techniques, data routing, processing, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) methods.

The influence on sensor network technologies ranges from areas, such as air quality monitoring and energy networks, to advanced manufacturing. This comes with its own challenges, due to the large volume of data with innate characteristics, such as velocity, volume, value, variety, and veracity.
