Welcome to the Wiki of IEEE's Smart Village (ISV) Committee. See our official website here: https://smartvillage.ieee.org/. This is a site that is in development using DokuWiki, and growing somewhat organically inspired by other wiki sites, such as the OpenStreetMap Wiki. It is currently hosted by adam.r.sauer@ieee.org, of the ISV Technology Committee. Because we had an open registration system that wasn't able to elude a surplus of russian bots, you gotta email adam at his email address to create an account. From there, get in contact with him or somebody else on our team (join the WhatsApp group [ask for connection]), and figure out spots to plug in. Please review syntax and start contributing under IEEEGuidelines, and see the Wiki Playground page for ideas on wiki functionalities. Feel free to create new pages in that :playground header to get started in page editing.
