SaMMY @ VICINITY

General Details

SaMMy is an IoT cloud-based service solution for the Yachting Marina ecosystem, which enables the Marinas to efficiently manage their resources, to attract and efficiently service more yachts and support the local markets by linking them with the yachting community. Its main goal is to simplify Yachting Marinas’ operational processes, strengthening the yachters’ engagement with them as well as with the surrounding economies and also offer easy-to-use online services to yachters and skippers.

The SaMMY IoT infrastructure designed, installed and tested in marine environment. The complete IoT solution has been successfully deployed in the Patras Port Authority marine, that hosts Mega-yachts(20-50 meters long) and the marina administration system is operating at Patras Port Authority offices

Brief description of the project

SaMMY’s architecture involves a sensor grid network, gateways and data collectors, customize communication protocols between devices and systems, a unified RESTful-based data model and a series of services through web interfaces, plus a mobile application (iOS and Android). The sensor readings are processed so as to become suitable for the Marina Management needs but also for the yachters/skippers/crew members. 

The network infrastructure and the low-level software components (agents and collectors) are used to transfer the data into the cloud, which act as the data storage pool of the various end-user services. The architecture of the platform enables interoperability with other IoT providers or systems, using open source technologies and application-irrelevant data models (RESTful-JSON) 

A Real time Monitoring Dashboard collects the data (weather conditions, water conditions, berth space availability) from the VICINITY Cloud and present to the user through a rich GUI.

Infrastructure

SaMMY Patras Port Marina IoT Infrastructure

Taking advantage of its open architecture (and RESTful data model interfaces SaMMY can definitely contribute to any IoT ‘Smart City’ or/and ‘Smart Mobility’ ecosystem, enhancing the availability of Yachting-Marina sector data resources. In this way cross-domain applications will be attracted to use these resources in order to provide added-value services and applications. VICINITY offers a unique opportunity for SaMMY to become a part of a unified, cross-domain data and information resource pool, extending its usage to new applications and services which combine Smart City and Smart Mobility related data and provide added-value services to its customers or other companies. 

The specifications of the SaMMY IoT platform include the following:

  • Gateway: Meshlium-PRO-3G-AP
  • Plug&Sense, Smart Water: (pH, temp, ORP)
  • Plug&Sense, Smart City: (temp, humidity)
  • Plug&Sense, Smart City: (Ultrasound Sensor)
  • Water Proof: IP67 standard
  • Communication protocol: 802.15.4 standard

The IoT Real offer the following characteristics:

  • Real Time monitoring tool based on the SaMMY VICINITY Node, through the VICINITY Neighborhood Manager in the VICINITY Cloud
  • Weather conditions’ measurements monitoring
  • Water conditions’ measurements monitoring
  • Berth Space activity (availability) monitoring


Benefits from & to VICINITY

SaMMY’s platform compliance with VICINITY IoT infrastructure enhances our platform’s innovation capacity. The interconnection with state-of-the-art technological components enables delivering resources to cross-domain applications or technology service carriers.

SaMMY development and technical teams gained know-how in several fields and got engaged with the implementation of interoperable components that boost the competitiveness of SaMMY.

SaMMY platform an member of VICINITY ecosystem, gives us the opportunity to interact with new platforms, in order to create and deliver new services for the specific target market (yachting). The new services, based on the interaction between different vertical IoT platforms, will add value to our services and enable the use of its resources to VICINITY federation members or future potential third party integrators. 

On the other hand, the VICINITY ecosystem will be able to build a database that may have multiple benefits for its members but also for the end-users or future service providers that may develop upon VICINITY’s platform technology and results.

SaMMY Adapter Overview

The adapter is used to describe devices and sensors from Patras Port Mega Yacht Mooring, like Air Temperature, Humidity, Water Temperature, ORP, PH, Berth spaces occupancy/availability etc, and it interacts with SaMMY IoT platform:
