Work-in-Progress: Towards an International Data

In the age of digitalization, data protection plays an important role. Data is created, modified and shared over the Internet between data owners and data users. A key issue in this context is the respect of data sovereignty. The International Data Spaces (IDS) Reference Architecture has been developed in order to preserve data sovereignty. In this regard, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, such as sensors, play an important role for providing data. However, an IoT device is not capable of being integrated directly into the IDS by default. We propose an approach to enable the IDS for vendor independent IoT devices, using an open interoperability standard for the IoT specified by the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC). This allows data owners to benefit from providing their own data while retaining control over it.
