About The Project

demo.mp4

Effortless cloud based solution for storing and sharing your SignalK data. Allow you to effortlessly log your sails and monitor your boat with historical data.

Here's how:

It is all about SQL, object-relational, time-series, spatial databases with a bit of python.

PostgSail is an open-source alternative to traditional vessel data management. It is based on a well known open-source technology stack, Signalk, PostgreSQL, TimescaleDB, PostGIS, PostgREST. It does perfectly integrate with standard monitoring tool stack like Grafana.

To understand the why and how, you might want to read Why.md
