Every reading, in context.
A temperature reading needs a place and a time. Connect each measurement to the buoy’s position so the people using the feed can interpret it.
- Buoy ID
- BUOY-07
- Observation time
- 05 Sep 2026 · 10:24 UTC
- Position
- 54.20° N, 4.10° E
- Water temperature
- 14.2 °C
- The source
- Buoy telemetry containing water-temperature measurements, observation timestamps, and position updates, received through an existing gateway.
- The processing
- Normalise timestamps and units. Associate each measurement with a position using the buoy identifier and observation time.
- The customer output
- An observation feed with buoy identifiers, timestamps, positions, and water temperature for monitoring and downstream tools.
Where Fabric fits
Your team operates the sensors and communications. Fabric connects at the gateway and handles the processing and delivery.
