Hi Christine! Happy to hear that you are interested in contributing. The spatial data processing is a fun and challenging topic.
We are currently creating a set of "how to get started" and "how to contribute" docs. We hope to have a first version ready in the next days. Until then, I can point you to the documentation of the predecessor project "Stratosphere", which evolved into Flink: http://stratosphere.eu/docs/0.5/ Greetings, Stephan On Wed, Jun 18, 2014 at 12:08 PM, Christine Fong <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Apache Flink community ! > > My name is Christine Fong.
