Water Hackathon
Come hack water with Pachube, Ushahidi, DontFlush.Me, and PublicLaboratory.org. We will be exploring how we can build our own investigative tools, create rugged sensors that can survive in the water for at least 1 month, connect real-time data and citizen observed reports with a PachubeUshahidi linkup, crowdsource water quality information, and generally create systems that engage people with their waterways here in NYC.
