Moreover, we are also witnessing the fast emergence of location-based services with an abundant number of localization technologies and solutions with varying capabilities and limitations. We believe that, at this moment in time, the successful integration of these two diverse technologies is mutually beneficial and even essential for both fields. IoT is one of the major fields that can benefit from localization services, and so, the integration of localization systems in the IoT ecosystem would enable numerous new IoT applications. Further, the use of standardized IoT architectures, interaction and information models will permit multiple localization systems to communicate and interoperate with each other in order to obtain better context information and resolve positioning errors or conflicts. Therefore, in this work, we investigate the semantic interoperation and integration of positioning systems in order to obtain the full potential of the localization ecosystem in the context of IoT. Additionally, we also validate the proposed design by means of an industrial case study, which targets fully-automated warehouses utilizing location-aware and interconnected IoT products and systems.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s18072142","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,7,3]],"date-time":"2018-07-03T15:12:58Z","timestamp":1530630778000},"page":"2142","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Light-Weight Integration and Interoperation of Localization Systems in IoT"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"18","author":[{"ORCID":"http:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4924-640X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Abdulkadir","family":"Karaagac","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Information Technology, Ghent University\/imec, IDLab, Technologiepark-Zwijnaarde 15, B-9052 Ghent, Belgium"}]},{"given":"Pieter","family":"Suanet","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Aucxis CVBA, Zavelstraat 40, 9190 Stekene, Belgium"}]},{"ORCID":"http:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8807-0673","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Wout","family":"Joseph","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Information Technology, Ghent University\/imec, IDLab, Technologiepark-Zwijnaarde 15, B-9052 Ghent, Belgium"}]},{"ORCID":"http:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2377-3674","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ingrid","family":"Moerman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Information Technology, Ghent University\/imec, IDLab, Technologiepark-Zwijnaarde 15, B-9052 Ghent, Belgium"}]},{"ORCID":"http:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2039-007X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jeroen","family":"Hoebeke","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Information Technology, Ghent University\/imec, IDLab, Technologiepark-Zwijnaarde 15, B-9052 Ghent, Belgium"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,7,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"243","DOI":"10.1007\/s10796-014-9492-7","article-title":"The Internet of Things: A Survey","volume":"Volume 17","author":"Li","year":"2015","journal-title":"Information Systems Frontiers"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2347","DOI":"10.1109\/COMST.2015.2444095","article-title":"Internet of Things: A Survey on Enabling Technologies, Protocols, and Applications","volume":"17","author":"Guizani","year":"2015","journal-title":"IEEE Commun.
