# 5 Introduction to OGC SensorThings API
&lt;Text>
The SensorThings API (STA) is a standard of the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC). It provides a framework for communication and exchanging data between sensors and applications. The standard is devided in two parts. SensorThings API Part 1 is dedicated to sensing and was published in 2016 and updated in 2021 <a href="#_ref_1">[1]</a>. Part 2 deals with tasking and was published in 2019 <a href="#_ref_i.2">[i.2]</a>.

A STA-based architecture works in client/server mode. A sensor device pushes data to the SensorThings Server via HTTP. A SensorThings Server may also support MQTT protocol to support publish and subscribe capabilities. An interested application can subscribe to the MQTT-Broker, in order to get notified about new sensor events.

The data in the SensorThings server are organized as according to Sensing Entities (see Figure 5.0-1: Sensing Entities data model).

In the Sensing Entities Data Model events or sensor data are called "observations". Before a sensor is able to push an observation to the server it needs at least a 'Thing' and a 'Datastream' entity. This has to be created beforehand. One 'Thing' might have different 'Sensors', one 'Location' or many 'HistoricalLocations'.
