Prioritized transmission of data from a mobile device, where the mobile device includes the ability to transmit data using more than one transmission medium, includes generating data packets from sensor data. The data packet is then assigned a priority level based on the sensor data and various factors relating to the transmission mediums. The priority level may be assigned based on the transmission availability, bandwidth and cost of using the medium. The data packets, based on the assigned priority level, are then stored in a corresponding priority buffer associated with a transmission device using one of the transmission mediums. When available, the transmission device may then readily transmit the data packet from the priority buffer. Therefore, the data is transferred in a prioritized order based, in part, on the transmission medium and factors relating to the medium, as well as the sensor data being transmitted.
