Collecting And Analyzing Data In A Distributed Sensor Network
First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- a processor; and
a memory that stores computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprisingdetermining if data for analysis during a data analysis operation is available,if a determination is made that the data for analysis is not available, obtaining the data from a distributed sensor system comprising a plurality of data sources and a communications component that supports cellular communications in a coverage area associated with the distributed sensor system,analyzing the data in a data analysis operation, andoutputting results of the data analysis operation.

Abstract
Concepts and technologies are disclosed herein for collecting and analyzing data in a distributed sensor network. The distributed sensor network can include a number of distributed sensor systems having data sources such as sensors, communication equipment, and/or other systems and components. The distributed sensor systems also can include lighting systems, if desired. The distributed sensor systems can collect data from the data sources and provide the data to a local or remote entity such as a data analysis engine. The data analysis engine can request data from the distributed sensor systems, receive the data, and analyze the data for various purposes.
