## About

On a mission to provide Erfurt, Germany with a free IOT data network!

I would like to find people near Erfurt to build a IoT data network in the center of germany and i would like to setup the network in the context of my local hackerspace bytespeicher. Fortunately, we have an old chimney at the building with a great view over the city. At the moment we use the bytetower only for Freifunk. At Bytespeicher we would have a conference room and an electronics lab to meet and build our own its devices.
