For instance, nearby sensors are likely to observe similar amounts of rainfall.

Feedback:
The same could be said of smartphone sensors, e.g. ambient light sensors of two smartphones located in the same vicinity. Perhaps there are better examples than this one to illustrate the point you make that “ … [it] also reveals information about unsampled nearby people and locations”

Reply Emily:
I believe Jano wrote this part. Perhaps he can come up with some additional examples?

@EmilyDaemen @kjano I would prefer the example said 'temperature' rather than 'rainfall'. Rainfall is remarkably "noisy" and incoherent. Temperature is more consistent, and any deviations are more easily understood - sensors in the shade or not. or at different altitude.
