Hello ISTSOS Team,
I am Mostafa Magdy from Egypt, a fourth-year Computer Engineering student at Cairo University with real-world software development experience through internships at startups like Obelion. I am proficient in C/C++, Python, and JavaScript, and I have completed many projects using these languages. Last year, I made open-source contributions to The Plone Foundation. I am particularly interested in the OSGEO organization and its projects, especially ISTSOS. I have set up the project locally and have tried interfacing with the SensorThings API. However, I am unsure of the next steps.

I haven't found a list of beginner-friendly issues to start with. Should I contribute to the existing issues, or do they require more advanced knowledge?

I am particularly interested in the idea of a Grafana Data Source Plugin for ISTSOS4, as I have experience integrating Grafana to monitor the system and manage logs during my previous internship.

Could you advise on the best way to begin understanding the ISTSOS4 codebase before starting to write a draft proposal for this idea?

Hey istSOS team!

I am geospatial software engineer from Wilmington, North Carolina, USA. I am looking forward to contributing to the project where I can!

In my time working on a proof-of-concept for the project proposals I came across some neat projects that work interoperably with SensorThings API, so I thought I'd share them!

• Internet of Water provides HubKit, GUI to map their data in .csv files to a SensorThings API data model
• CoatyJS's Sensor Things objects , framework provides a production-ready application and communication layer foundation for building collaborative IoT applications in an easy-to-use yet powerful and efficient way.
• STAM, JavaScript library for showing the Things/Features of interest of a SensorThings server on a Leaflet/OpenLayers map
