Curation of custom workflows using multiple cameras

A multi-layer technology stack includes a sensor layer including image sensors, a device layer, and a cloud layer, with interfaces between the layers. A method to curate different custom workflows for multiple applications include the following. Requirements for custom sets of data packages for the applications is received. The custom set of data packages include sensor data packages (e.g., SceneData) and contextual metadata packages that contextualize the sensor data packages (e.g., SceneMarks). Based on the received requirements and capabilities of components in the technology stack, the custom workflow for that application is deployed. This includes a selection, configuration and linking of components from the technology stack. The custom workflow is implemented in the components of the technology stack by transmitting workflow control packages directly and/or indirectly via the interfaces to the different layers.
