Re: [plots-dev] Another Sensor Data site bites the dust. Time for P2P?

[Jeffrey Warren]

I'd like to join too, and am cc'ing a couple other lists that may be interested in question of where to store your sensor data long term!

Also, some resources on services to do this:

http://opendustmap.com/

Overview of a lot of different services (broader than just sensors): https://publiclab.org/notes/warren/02-17-2017/environmental-data-management-analysis-tools

There's not THAT much on our site about these services otherwise but we might use this tag to try to compile it: https://publiclab.org/tag/data-management

Thanks, RJ, liz, everyone!

Hi folks,
Sounds like next week works better for most people. Let's aim for next Thursday at 4pm EST.

Thanks for kicking off RJ! This discussion is indeed very timely. Tomorrow is tough for me to join.  If next week is possible, it would be far better for me too.

This is awesome! 

I can't make it this week is there a chance we could do it next week? 

I'd like to also invite someone like Matt Zumwalt of Protocol Labs to chip in about the protocol IPFS "interplanetary file system" for a content-addressable web and the role of communities and organizations who care about data in peer-to-peer / decentralized file hosting. If he can't do it I can summarize.

Hi folks -

It's a shame that data.sparkfun.com is closing it's doors but we all know this isn't the first time we've seen a centralized data service close it's doors. I don't know if I have the silver bullet for us but I have been looking into two promising but very different P2P technologies, Dat and Blockchain. Id be happy to present on how a P2P hosting solution for sensor data might look like and then brainstorm to see if these things r a good fit for a pilot or two in our various use cases.

I cast a wide net here so I'm just going to throw out a time. Let's do 4:30pm EST on Thursday Sept 14.

Hi folks, 

A community member pointed out to me no new streams can be created on data.sparkfun.com because, as the website says "phant.io is taking a break." (see screenshot below)

!

This affects at least one of Public Lab's projects https://github.com/jywarren/grapherate and i'm sure many more around the community -- is anyone else affected by this?

What is the next best place to put sensor data?

RJ, copying you in to ask about Open Pipe Kit http://openpipekit.github.io/index.html#!README.md

Hi folks, 

After our call last week I reached out to the Data Together folks to get more information about how useable the stack is at this point. Quick recap, they are working on making the decentralized web more usable for communities to manage their data. The IPFS protocol helps, and so does having a lot of librarians involved. 

They've invited anyone who wants to discuss hosting sensor data (either from streams, or from occasional manual uploads) to join their community call this Thursday at 6:30pm ET. I will send out the details here in this thread as soon as they are available. 

Anyone else have updates since we spoke last week?

Thanks!

Liz

Thanks Liz!  Unfortunately I won't be able to make the meeting tonight - wife is in NYC until late so I'm on baby duty.  I might try to listen in though... :-)

Not much to report since the meeting - Chris has been making some great progress towards pulling data from a Campbell datalogger at Wolfes Neck Farm.  We are going to try pushing that to Streamr after it is successfully getting piped into farmOS.  So we'll see how that goes...

Hey everyone, there's an in-person and remote event happening tomorrow about distributed data storage -- some of it will be meta about running the project itself but perhaps you might like to zoom conference in to the 9am standup to at least get a sense of where things are at? Full information below:  

---------- Forwarded message ----------
From: Environmental DGI <envi...@gmail.com>
Date: Wed, Oct 25, 2017 at 2:35 PM
Subject: Data Together Sprint Instructions for Oct 26-27 🚀📔
To: envi...@gmail.com
Cc: Dawn Walker <dawnc...@gmail.com>

Thank you for working with us to improve Data Together! We’ve got those joining in-person covered with ☕ coffee & lunch, with stickers for all (including remote) attendees

First Steps 

1. Get on Archivers Slack and join the #datatogether channel
2. Become a member of our datatogether GitHub organization by pinging @dcwalk on Slack with your handle
3. Read our Contributing Guidelines and Code of Conduct
4. Attend our Kick-off Call 9am ET Thursday morning, we’ll discuss tasks and break off work from there

Livestreams 💻 and Calls 🎧

We’ll have a livestream 💻 throughout the sprint, you can see our full schedule, with just the calls listed below:

Thursday	Friday
9:00 AM Kick Off	9:30 AM Morning Standup
5:30 PM Evening Call	5:00 PM Wrap Up

Sprint Goals 🏅 and Project Tracking 🗂️

We have 5 core goals, with detailed sub-tasks, that we are hoping to accomplish during the sprint:

1. Improve Documentation
2. Identify Test Coverage
3. Update datatogether.org Website
4. Create “First Time” Use Issues (stretch goal)
5. Establish Technical Documentation Guidelines (stretch goal)

In order to track our progress we are using:

• Project Tracking Board
• GitHub Milestone and Issues

Working Collaboratively 👬👫👭 and Questions 🤔

We have Contributing Guidelines and like to work collaboratively through peer coding, reviewing pull requests, and Slack conversations. During the sprint we’ll have ambient livestreaming from each location, but these are not intended for heavy one-on-one discussion, start that in-person or in Slack!

You can ping us all on GitHub by using @datatogether/sprint-leaders in issues or pull requests. Generally it is better to ping only the person who is the point of contact for the topic you have a question about:

• @b5 (Brendan, Brooklyn) - testing, website, technical documentation
• @jeffliu (Jeff, Boston) - custom crawling, “first time use”
• @dcwalk (Dawn, Toronto) - documentation, website
• @mattprice (Matt, Toronto) - documentation, website, “first time use”

See you tomorrow!

Hi folks, 

I invited Brendan from Data Together to our 3pm open call today to casually show us around what's possible and what's planned for this decentralized web project that is designed for communities to hold, share, visualize data together (hence the name). It would be great to see you guys again and hear updates from your side as well, it's been a month at least!
