Richmond, VA - May 6, 2019 - Project Haystack (www.project-haystack.org), a collaborative community addressing the challenge of utilizing semantic modeling and tagging to streamline the interchange of data among different systems, devices, equipment and software applications, today announced today announced that Haystack 4, the next generation of the Project Haystack data modeling standard, is now in public review.
"Understanding the need for semantic modeling of device and equipment data has matured significantly in the last decade and the requirements and techniques for applying semantic modeling to equipment data are advancing rapidly.
