# SensorML 2.0 Examples

## Defining and Setting Sensor Modes

SensorML allows one to define modes that can be set in real-time or during deployment of a sensor instance. A given mode allows one to set a collection of parameters by simply setting the mode. A choice of modes is defined in the base sensor and set in the sensor instance. Modes can also be defined and set for computational processes.

The example below shows the owners description with modes set, followed by the description of the sensor model with defined modes.

NOTE: SensorML 2.0 is not yet approved by the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC). Examples are provided for evaluation and are subject to change during the standards review and approval process. Contact mike.botts@botts-inc.net for questions or recommendations.

For reference, the OEM's sensor description with defined modes is shown below.
