Claim 0:
1. A method to conduct blockchain-based decentralized analytics, the method comprising:
obtaining, by one or more first processors of a first computing device, from a local data store of the first computing device, sensor data or sensor-related data, wherein the sensor data or sensor-related data is acquired for a geographic location or a set thereof;
receiving, by the one or more first processors executing instructions for a first blockchain-based decentralized analytics application, from a plurality of computing devices executing instructions of a blockchain-based decentralized analytics application, a plurality of blockchain transactions, including a first blockchain transaction, wherein the first blockchain transaction comprises transaction data associated with a first aggregated analytics operation executed by an analytics blockchain smart contract;
determining, by the one or more first processors, via the first blockchain-based decentralized analytics application, an updated transaction data associated with the first aggregated analytics operation using, via the first aggregated analytics operation, (i) the received transaction data associated with the first aggregated analytics operation and (ii) the obtained sensor data or sensor-related data;
directing, by the one or more first processors, via the first blockchain-based decentralized analytics application, the updated transaction data to be transmitted to a plurality of blockchains associated with the first blockchain-based decentralized analytics application and executing at a plurality of peer nodes; and
receiving an aggregated transaction data to the transmitted updated transaction data through a consensus operation performed by the plurality of blockchains;
wherein the aggregated transaction data is subsequently used for analytics or controls using one or more output values associated with the first aggregated analytics operation.
