Include userAlias in common-schema.json

The file common-schema.json compiles those properties massively used across the different data models in the different domains.
The property userAlias has been included to store those anonymous identifiers of a user that cannot be traced back to the user.
It can be referenced in any data model just by including this code

“userAlias”: {
“$ref” : “https://smart-data-models.github.io/data-models/common-schema.json#/definitions/userAlias”
}

Two new data models PhotovoltaicDevice and PhotovoltaicMeasurement in GreenEnergy Subject

Two new data models, PhotovoltaicDevice and PhotovoltaicMeasurement are available in the dataModel.GreenEnergy Subject.

PhotovoltaicDevice: The Data Model is intended to describe the mechanical, electrical, and thermal characteristics of photo-voltaic panels according to STC – Standard Test Condition and NOCT – Normal Operating Cell Temperature

PhotovoltaicMeasurement: The Data Model is intended to measure the continuous power transferred by the photo-voltaic panel to an Inverter Device.

 

 

Updated the contribution manual

This a general review of the contributions’ manual with these changes:

  • Recommendation how to document a property that is an object referencing to a shared schema
  • Change order in the elements (schema recommendation is the most demanded documentation and it is being placed at the beginning)
  • Minor reviews, contact point, etc.

Located in the upper menu of the site.

Update the database for searching properties and descriptions

It has been updated the database for searching properties, two main improvements:

  1.  Performance (now it is a database query instead of the former static file)
  2.  The reference model of the property
  3.  The format (uri, date-time, etc) for string properties.

 

Alpha version of the service for generating an NGSI-LD payload based on a Smart Data Model

This is an alpha version (so you can expect errors and not being complete). Use it at your own risk. Please report errors and suggestions at info@smartdatamodels.org

Call: https://smartdatamodels.org/extra/ngsi-ld_generator.php

Parameters: (Mandatories)

  • schemaUrl: The link to the RAW version of the json schema (see example)
  • email: your email

Example: https://smartdatamodels.org/extra/ngsi-ld_generator.php?schemaUrl=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/smart-data-models/dataModel.Streetlighting/f56f5a7933ab05d7fce1d5adc0847f25a099cdb4/StreetlightModel/schema.json&email=alberto.abella@fiware.org

Use any data model from Smart Data Models initiative and paste it into the form. Then you’ll get a page with a random payload compliant with the data model. Refresh for more.

    Thanks for being patient

    Script for checking a data model submission

    In the directory utils of the umbrella repository data-models there is a new python script that checks if a schema is properly documented and if the payload is correctly located and validates against the schema.

    New option for drafting a data model

    In the front page, there is a new option that allows you top to directly create a copy of the template sheet for creating new data models.

    Remember that this spreadsheet is done for those unfamiliar with json schema (the official format for the smart data models) to allow them to create a new data model from their knowlege.

    The use instructions are in the spreadsheet

    Any doubt please let us know at info@smartdatamodels.org
