Combines TDengine (one table per device with supertables) and Ontop to translate SPARQL to optimized SQL so queries like “humidity > 46%” run live without ETL, merging results from many vendor schemas into the SOSA ontology vocabulary; demonstration shows unions handled by mappings, supports aggregation and averages, and keeps data in-place for fresh reads. Works with open source stacks but Ontop’s TDengine support is new and still needs optimization.
