A method and apparatus are provided for receiving compressed sensed data at a device and providing for decompression of the compressed sensed data at a delegated resource. A method of using resources may be provided with superior processing capacity and/or power capacity for computationally intensive decompression of compressed sensed data. A method may include determining a target recipient device for decompressed data, determining the appropriate decompressed data format for the decompressed data, and determining a delegated resource to select for decompression of the compressed sensed data. The method may further include providing for transmission of the compressed sensed data to the delegated resource.
