A computer implemented method, computer program product and computer system for sensor selection. The computer system can run the computer program to execute the method by dividing a two-dimensional area into cells, wherein the cells are arranged in a grid; receiving a selection trigger for a subset of cells of the grid, wherein at least one cell of the subset has at least one sensor and the at least one cell has a sampling frequency associated; determining a set of constraints for the at least one sensor; selecting the at least one sensor if the at least one sensor complies with the set of constraints; and calculating a sampling frequency of the at least one sensor dependent on the sampling frequency of the at least one cell.
