scope:

This Recommendation describes requirements of an Internet of things (IoT) enabled network for support of applications monitoring and studying global processes of the Earth. This innovative concept of "Internet of things for monitoring and studying global processes (IoT GP)" combines geographically distributed IoT devices, and one or more control and management centres (CMCs) for the monitoring of global natural and man-made processes.

This Recommendation describes key IoT GP features, deployment schemes of IoT GP devices, and requirements of the IoT GP network.
