RésEau:
A Water Portal SensorWeb Implementation
RésEau is a Government On-Line demonstration initiative
focused on water information. RésEau supports clean,
safe, and secure water for all Canadians and ecosystems.
Specifically, RésEau seeks to establish partnerships and
projects to demonstrate the sharing, discovery, access, and use
of water information over the Internet through the use of
standards and specifications endorsed by the CGDI and the
OGC.

Project Overview
RésEau – “Building Canadian Water Connections”
Projects and Partnerships: leadership role in pulling together existing data and
information (including water quality, quantity, and use) from distributed networks of
partners across numerous Canadian jurisdictions
Sound Science / Technical Architecture
Scientific integrity is key starting with credible water quality, quantity and use data.
Standards and specifications endorsed by the Canadian Geospatial Data
Infrastructure and the Open Geospatial Consortium are an essential foundation of
RésEau
Products - Interactive Web Portal
This Interactive Web Portal forms the dynamic focal point of RésEau. The portal
includes data, interpreted information, tools, and services to facilitate the
interconnection of water information from distributed sources to promote a greater
understanding of complex water issues for enhanced decision making.

Standards and Specifications
Standards Used: (to link to water related info in any given geographical
area)
• OGC
–
–
–
–
WMS, WFS - for mapping of monitoring locations
WMC documents – Load/save application state, predefined maps
SensorML – description of monitoring locations, variables measured
SOS created on one set of monitoring stations/variables
• FGDC
- for description of information collections, tools e.g. Water Use
Calculator
• GeoRSS
- for geo-relevant news feeds (locally, by watershed etc.)

SensorWeb Implementation
Why SensorML?
Environment Canada is a monitoring department
Vast amount of our information holdings are instrument based
such as:
•
•
•
•
•
Water Quality*
Water Quantity*
Air Quality
Climate Monitoring
Pollutant Releases
Requirement to:
•
•
•
•
Describe instruments (Characteristics, Properties) and monitoring sites
Report Observations / Measurements
Integrate real-time and non real-time information
Disseminate information and maintain Interoperability

SensorML Implementation
- How does it fit
- physical location as <sml:System> using system.xsd
- identification, classification, description, related info/links, history
of events at stations, variables measured/outputs
- RésEau prescribed a SensorML template for partners
- based on a “typical” water monitoring station
- funding for partners was contingent on producing data and
metadata following prescribed standards/profiles
- SensorML version 1.0.30 – Sept. 2005
- Implementation
- database to XML mapping (Altova, XSLT transformations)
- produced a unified output of SensorML
- Example (raw XML):
http://maps.seapei.ca/crq/SensorML/ca.seapei.crq-1.xml
