The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Sensor Measurement Lists (SenML)' (draft-ietf-core-senml-16.txt) as Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Constrained RESTful Environments Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Adam Roach, Alexey Melnikov and Ben Campbell. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-core-senml/ Technical Summary This specification defines media types for representing simple sensor measurements and device parameters in the Sensor Measurement Lists (SenML). Representations are defined in JavaScript Object Notation (JSON), Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR), eXtensible Markup Language (XML), and Efficient XML Interchange (EXI), which share the common SenML data model. A simple sensor, such as a temperature sensor, could use this media type in protocols such as HTTP or CoAP to transport the measurements of the sensor or to be configured. Working Group Summary The document has gone through multiple expert reviews and has been discussed on multiple IETF meetings. The document was not controversial. Document Quality There are several existing implementations of the formats described in this document. Personnel Document Shepherd: Jaime Jiménez, Area Director: Alexey Melnikov, RFC Editor Note Please add the following sentence to the end of 1st paragraph of Section 13: Malicious use of SenML to change system state could have severe consequences, potentially including violation of physical security, property damage, and even loss of life.
