1. A system comprising:
a plurality of wearable devices each configured to be worn by a respective owner and each comprising a sensor configured to measure one or more properties representing a status, function or physiology of the respective owner and to generate information corresponding to the one or more properties; and
a computing server having one or more processors, a memory, and a communications transceiver, and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium whose stored contents configure the computing server to perform a method comprising:
a) obtaining, through the communications transceiver, information from the plurality of wearable devices corresponding to the one or more properties;
b) maintaining, in the memory, at least one database having stored therein, at least a portion of the information obtained from the plurality of wearable devices, said database being organized as a plurality of records, each record associated with a respective owner and having a plurality of fields including at least one field having associated therewith information obtained from a wearable device worn by the respective owner;
c) receiving, through the communications transceiver, a request comprising: i) a specification for a dataset identifying one or more fields, specified information associated with the one or more identified fields, and a specified quantity of records to be included in the dataset, wherein the specified information comprises a type of wearable device, and at least one type of the one or more properties measurable by the sensor, and ii) a specification for consideration specifying a compensation to be provided to the respective owner of the information;
d) determining, by the one or more processors, if one or more records satisfy the request by: i) searching said database to find records that contain some or all of the specified information and that satisfy the specification for consideration; and ii) retrieving information from at least some of the found records;
e) wherein determining if one or more records satisfy the request further comprises: presenting information on discrepancy between the specification for consideration and the compensation included in the plurality of records in the auction pool; and
f) forming, by the one or more processors, a productized dataset comprising at least some of the retrieved information.
