Sure.  The Publication/Subscribe model hardly is restricted to RSS.  It
equally applies to WFS and to many other protocols.  GeoRSS for sensors
will get you into more elaborate data models for sensor modeling, better
geo modeling, better temporal modeling etc. - soon geoRSS is either just
a low level transport (text stream) or you give up simplicity - I don't
see that there is a choice.

Ron,

Sure.  Here is another example.  We use georss feeds for all of our
sensor data outputs.  I guess that you can consider these as news for
some people :)   
You know: "You've got mail".  So think of it as: "You've got data".
This works very well in the publish/subscribe model.

Pat.

Does this make sense?  I thought geoRSS was for news feeds?  Is this
news?

Perhaps not quite on topic, but there is a new portal in Canada about to
go live - A water portal that provides live access to instream flow and
water quality sensors. They are going to generate georss structured
feeds for subscibers wanting to monitor one or more sensors. Not sure if
they have a client, but I can check.

Cheers

Carl

Standards Used: (to link to water related info in any given geographical
area) 

*         OGC       

-         WMS, WFS - for mapping of monitoring locations 

-         WMC documents - Load/save application state, predefined maps 

-         SensorML - description of monitoring locations, variables
measured 

*         FGDC - for description of information collections, tools e.g.
Water Use Calculator 

- used previously for station-level metadata prior to adoption of
SensorML 

*         GeoRSS - for geo-relevant news feeds (locally, by watershed
etc.)
