# City Portal - A STEAM Club Project (incomplete, this README describes the end goal)
|
|
|
|
*AI note*: the old README used to be AI generated. This is no longer the case, and all the code in this
|
|
project is 100% human-written.
|
|
|
|
City portal is a local data aggregator: local data is a term I coined to mean data that only matters to a specific geographical community.
|
|
This can range from weather, to events at the local town hall, to transportation. City Portal provides an open and extendable way to use this data,
|
|
exposing a GraphQL API that anyone is free to read from, but write access can be restricted.
|
|
|
|
The City Portal is adaptable to different scenarios: by customizing the different datasets that the server stores and that data can be stored into,
|
|
the managers of the Portal can decide what kinds of local data is stored, but still have this data categorized neatly by function.
|
|
|
|
Finally, because of its free to read API, the City Portal promotes extension: anyone is free to build ML models, graphs, or visualizations on top
|
|
of the Portal.
