The term "extended Internet of Things data ecosystem" refers to an integrated system of smart devices and smart sensors that produce massive "machine generated" data in real-time or almost real-time. In this context, an extended IoT data ecosystem covers a wide range of diverse smart devices and cross-platform deployments of various embedded technologies, as an example shown in Figure 2, titled "Internet of Things: application areas and integration", in the technical specifications. The integration of other human generated data cannot be excluded from an extended IoT data ecosystem.
