+#FreeDavis project
+This project aims to provide a user-installable, idiot-proof and reliable way
+of accessing data provided by the instruments made by a company called Davis.
+The outdoor units are pretty accurate and reliable units, but to be honest,
+the inability to access / dump / mine / connect to the data directly, is a limiting
+factor.
+
+##Desired functionality
+As the name suggests, the whole thing should be an open system, based on open software.
+From the things that the system should be capable of:
+ 1. receiving the data from outdoor sensors (obviously)
+ 2. Logging and storing the data
+ 3. Display / analysis / plotting
+ 4. Possibly sending of data
+
+##Data receiver
+Data receiver part is accomplished by a CC1101 wireless chip connected to an
+Arduino mini, both working on 3.3V. Dtat is being sent via serial Rx Tx pins of
+the arduino.
+
+##Data logger
+Current working solution incorporates an additional connection of a RaspberryPi
+that loggs data sent by the Arduino via serial interface.
+ - data extraction written in python
+ - data feeder written in python (influxDB connector)
+ - data logging and storing is accomplished via InfluxDB (subject to change?)
+ - data serving python app based on cherrypy
+ - UI based on bootstrap3
+ - graphing by Dygraphs.js
