         2 . The data collection system of  claim 1 , wherein at least one parameter of the data brokering engine is automatically configured by a machine learning facility based on at least one of a metric and a measure of success of the data marketplace. 
     
     
         3 . The data collection system of  claim 2 , wherein a data transaction input comprises a marketplace value rating, and wherein the marketplace value rating is assigned to a marketplace participant based on a value of input provided by a participant to the data marketplace. 
     
     
         4 . The data collection system of  claim 3 , wherein a data transaction comprises at least one of a trade transaction, a sale transaction, and a payment transaction. 
     
     
         5 . The data collection system of  claim 3 , wherein the at least one of a metric and a measure of success comprises at least one: of profit measures, yield measures, ratings, and indicators of interest. 
     
     
         6 . The data collection system of  claim 5 , wherein the ratings are provided by at least one of: user ratings, purchaser ratings, licensee ratings, and reviewer ratings. 
     
     
         7 . The data collection system of  claim 5 , wherein the indicators of interest comprise at least one of: clickstream activity, time spent on a page, include time spent reviewing elements, and links to data elements. 
     
     
         8 . The data collection system of  claim 1 , further comprising a rights management engine for managing permissions to access the collected data within the data marketplace, wherein at least one parameter of the rights management engine is automatically configured by a machine learning facility based on a metric of success of the data marketplace. 
     
     
         9 . A data collection system including a data marketplace in an industrial environment comprising:
 an input interface structured to receive data inputs from or about one or more of a plurality of industrial machines;   at least one of a data pool and a data stream to provide collected data within the data marketplace; and   a pricing engine for setting a price for at least one data element within the data marketplace.   
     
     
         10 . The data collection system of  claim 9 , wherein pricing is automatically configured for the pricing engine by a machine learning facility based on a metric and a measure of success of the data marketplace. 
     
     
         11 . The data collection system of  claim 10 , wherein the metric and the measure of success comprise at least one of: profit measures, yield measures, ratings, and indicators of interest. 
     
     
         12 . The data collection system of  claim 11 , wherein the ratings comprise at least one of: user ratings, purchaser ratings, licensee ratings, and reviewer ratings. 
     
     
         13 . The data collection system of  claim 11 , wherein the indicators of interest comprise at least one of: clickstream activity, time spent on a page, include time spent reviewing elements, and links to data elements. 
     
     
         14 . A data marketplace for a data collection system in an industrial environment comprising:
 an input interface structured to receive data inputs from or about one or more of a plurality of industrial machines;   at least one of a data pool and a data stream to provide collected data within the data marketplace; and   a user interface for presenting a data element and at least one mechanism by which a party using the data marketplace can obtain access to the at least one of the data stream and the data pool.   
     
     
         15 . The data collection system of  claim 14 , wherein at least one parameter of the user interface is automatically configured for the user interface by a machine learning facility based on a metric and a measure of success of the data marketplace. 
     
     
         16 . The data collection system of  claim 15 , wherein the metric and the measure of success comprise at least one of: profit measures, yield measures, ratings, and indicators of interest. 
     
     
         17 . The data collection system of  claim 16 , wherein the ratings comprise at least one of: user ratings, purchaser ratings, licensee ratings, and reviewer ratings. 
     
     
         18 . A method of executing a data marketplace, the method comprising:
 receiving marketplace inputs;   receiving a plurality of data inputs from or about one or more of a plurality of industrial machines;   storing at least one of the marketplace inputs and the plurality of data inputs in at least one of a plurality of data pools; and   brokering a data transaction among at least two marketplace participations.   
     
     
         19 . The method of  claim 18 , further comprising setting a price of at least one of the plurality of data inputs, wherein the price is automatically calculated based on a metric and measure of success of the data marketplace, and wherein the metric and measure of success comprises at least one of profit measures, yield measures, ratings, and indicators of interest. 
     
     
         20 . The method of  claim 18 , further comprising assigning a marketplace value rating, wherein the marketplace value rating is assigned to a marketplace participant based on a value of input provided by a participant to the data marketplace. 
     
     
         21 . The method of  claim 18 , further comprising presenting at least one of the plurality of data inputs and at least one mechanism by which a party using the data marketplace can obtain access to the at least one of the plurality of data inputs. 
     
     
         22 . The method of  claim 18 , wherein the marketplace inputs comprise inputs from a consortium, wherein the consortium comprises at least one of: an existing consortium, a new consortium, and a new consortium related to a data stream through a common interest. 
     
     
         23 . The method of  claim 18 , further comprising self-organizing at a subset of the plurality of data inputs based on a metric of success of the data marketplace.
