(ANN) DATABROKER DAO - A market place for sensor data.

[Rottip]

Marketplace on the internet is one of the best innovation in the technological advancements, goods and products can be purchased from any part of the world with just a simple search and order.

But still not all products are easily available online, products such as sensor data are restricted to certain areas where they are needed the most.

Sensor data is any device that detects and responds to some type changes in the physical environment.

Let's bring it back to some part of africa where farming is the major occupation, sensor data such rain guage, thermometer, anemometer which are instruments which measures weather focast to enable adequate and effective agricultural activities are not available.

Problems as such will remain if not tackled, which lead to the invention of a decentralized blockchain platform by some blockchain experts to serve as market place where data owners and buyers can exchange their products.

I want to inform you that the name of the platform is DATABROKER DAO.



At first glance on the word DATABROKER is a combination of two words DATA and BROKER, so by default it gives an idea of what the platform is about; buying and selling of data.


Some official references from DATABROKER

DataBroker DAO is the first mar-ketplace for IoT Sensor data that will connect sensor owners with purchasers of the data directly, utilising existing infrastructure from telecommunication pro-viders operating sensor connec-tivity networks based on GSM, LoRa, SigFox or via a proprietary gateway of the sensor owner. In a sense, the DataBroker DAO can be likened to a “secondary market” for IoT sensor data and has been referred to as an “eBay” or “Amazon” for IoT sensor data.

DataBroker DAO aims to be the foremost global P2P marketplace for sensor data where data buyers can get quality and reliable sensor data and sensor owners can monetize their locked away data. The project is conceived and driven by a team of professionals with vast experience in fintech, IT development, marketing and communication, software development, and business development. DataBroker DAO also receives solid advisory support from industry heavyweights and successful entrepreneurs.


Typical example of the usecase

A metrologist is researching the effects of rainfall, thunder and lightning for agricultural purposes. He purchases and installs IoT sensors to record his data. The IoT sensors then records a wide range of weather related data.

This researcher then makes this data available for purchase on the Databroker DAO platform.

A local farmer whom wants to expand his output by utilizing weather related data but doesn't have the means to purchase an IoT sensor can access this data on the DataBroker DAO platform


BENEFITS OF DATABROKER'S INCLUDE:

New monetization opportunities: DataBroker DAO provides a new way for sensor owners to make money by linking them with large scale data buyers such as self-driving technology companies, researchers, energy corporations, environmental agencies and so on. Sensor owners receive 80% of the amount paid for the data sold. DataBroker DAO unlocks the wealth in erstwhile siloed sensor data. Also, gateway operators are rewarded with 10% of the cost.

Reliable and Consistent Data Offering: Data buyers are offered consistent and quality data as data streams are pulled from the gateway operators. This leaves no point for data manipulation. Data processors will also be able to purchase raw data which they can enrich and resell or deliver to their clients.

Robust Ecosystem: DataBroker DAO platform creates a single point of discoverability for sensor data and converges all the stakeholders in the IoT space.

Low transaction fees: Unlike traditional payment system where transaction fees could be as high as 3% of the purchase cost, transactions on the DataBroker DAO platform will be very low and powered by the DTX utility token.
