1) Overview

The OpenGIS® Observations and Measurements Encoding Standard (O&M) defines an abstract model and an XML schema [www.w3.org/XML/Schema] encoding for observations and it provides support for common sampling strategies. O&M also provides a general framework for systems that deal in technical measurements in science and engineering. This is one of the OGC Sensor Web Enablement (SWE) [http://www.opengeospatial.org/ogc/markets-technologies/swe] suite of standards.
