GSoC ideas 2017

This page collects some ideas for GSoC 2017.
Interested students in particular ideas may write an e-mail to geoservice ]at[ supsi.ch

The istSOS project looks for students with data management skills and Python programming understanding, that want to develop extensions to support some of the ideas mentioned below.

1) Data analysis and statistical tools from sensor data

Using the Observation Analysis Tools (OAT) scientist can execute time-series visualisation, pre-processing of data for model development, and post-processing of sensor observeations data. The OAT library is an expandable Python library that can easily interact with istSOS, and new processing capabilities are needed to be given to data analyst.

The idea is to implement an OAT extension that will be able to automate the creation of statisticat documents, harvesting the data from an istSOS server and then publishing the result on Open Data Portals (like CKAN).

2) Upgrade and finalize the istSOS JavaScript Core Library

The Web is running fast and we need to update the istSOS JavaScript Core Library to follow some new trends, In the vision of a final and stable release of the API we need to make some refactoring in terms of the design of the library. A new node module shall be created and pubished to npm repository. To be behind the times, Webpack and Babel shall also be adopted. Making it compliant with modern web development, particularly with ReactJS.
