Our approach is both strategic and pragmatic. We will begin by customizing Gitcoin forms to gather crucial data, such as deployer and contract addresses. This data will be integrated and cleaned using OSO (Open Source Observer) systems, with manual cleaning for additional specific data.

Data Collection and Cleaning:

Customizing Gitcoin Forms: We will modify Gitcoin forms to collect essential data, such as deployer and contract addresses.

Data Integration: Data will be sourced from multiple platforms, including GitHub, blockchain transactions, and social media.

Data Cleaning: Initial data cleaning will be done using OSO systems, with manual intervention for additional specifics related to contract and deployer addresses.

Data Integration and Metrics:

Mapping Project Data: We will ensure that the collected data is accurately mapped to existing project identifiers in the OSO system.

Key Metrics: The dashboards will visualize metrics such as project metadata, GitHub activity (e.g., number of active developers, commit velocity), and on-chain data (e.g., active addresses, gas fees).

Dashboard and Visualization:

Interactive Dashboards: We will create interactive dashboards that allow users to explore and derive insights from the collected data.

Visualizations: The dashboards will feature visualizations of funding trends, project success rates, and impact metrics.

Technical Infrastructure:

BigQuery Integration: Leveraging existing BigQuery datasets for efficient data retrieval.

YAML Files: New project data will be added to the OSO system via YAML files, which will be updated and maintained regularly.
