+# 🏗️ System Architecture Focus
+
+This portfolio demonstrates:
+
+- Infrastructure design  
+- Monitoring and observability  
+- RF system integration  
+- Network segmentation (VLANs)  
+- Linux service management  
+- Real system deployment (not simulated)  
+
+---
+
+# 📡 Edge Systems (Differentiator)
+
+Most portfolios show apps.
+
+This one shows:
+
+👉 Live edge systems feeding real data
+
+- APRS iGate feeds RF data into infrastructure  
+- Represented inside NOC dashboard  
+- Bridges physical → digital systems  
+
+---
+
+# 📈 Roadmap
+
+- [ ] Grafana + Prometheus integration  
+- [ ] Real-time metrics ingestion  
+- [ ] NOC alerting system  
+- [ ] Mobile APRS iGate deployment  
+- [ ] Advanced system dashboards
