The proposed solutions address important challenges that emerge from the IoT networks. This brings signi?cant to deal with large-scale sensor data emerging from the Internet of challenges to data integration, data fusion and discovery mech- Things resources. While there are signi?cant numbers of recent anisms that require interoperable and machine-interpretable work on semantic sensor networks, semantic annotation and data and quality descriptions. In recent years a number of representation frameworks, there has been less focus on creating ef?cient and ?exible schemes to describe the sensor streams and efforts have been made to model sensor networks and their the observation and measurement data provided via these streams data using machine-interpretable and interoperable formats. and to name and resolve the requests to these data. We present The existing work often use solutions that are adapted from our semantic model to describe the sensor streams, demonstrate the semantic Web and semantic data modelling to overcome an annotation and data distribution framework and evaluate our the interoperability issues and to provide semantically rich solutions with a set of sample datasets. The results show that our descriptions for
