Abstract

A plurality of sensor devices that senses environmental data at installation positions is appropriately arranged. Each sensor device includes a device detection unit, a position fixing unit, a sensor unit, and a transmission unit. The device detection unit performs operation of detecting another sensor device in the surrounding area and generates a detection result thereof. The position fixing unit fixes a position of the own sensor device on the basis of the detection result obtained by the device detection unit. The sensor unit senses environmental data at a position fixed by the position fixing unit. The transmission unit transmits the data sensed by the sensor unit.
