Tasking

Tasking in Sensor Drivers

  • Sensor/actuator drivers can provide one or more tasking input by implementing ISensorControlInterface
  • In general, drivers should not handle scheduling and priorities

Sensor Planning Service

  • Allows tasking of sensors, actuators or more complex assets or systems
  • Service provides operations for
    • Evaluating task feasibility
    • Submitting tasks
    • Canceling tasks
    • Getting status of tasks
    • Reserving assets for a task
  • Uses SWE Common for tasking message description and encoding

  • Synchronous or Asynchronous operation and support for Notifications of task state changes (via OASIS WS-N)

Tasking Methods

Direct Tasking

Service forwards command message to sensor driver as soon as it is received

Scheduled

Tasks is scheduled and executed asynchronously at a later time
