| 12 | +# Visualizing KORE SUPER SIM Event Streams in Real Time |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +Hi there, my name is **Vitor Ribeiro**, and I am a **Solutions Architect** at **KORE Wireless**. |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +In this article, I’ll show you how I built a full real-time geospatial visualization tool for [**KORE SUPER SIM**](https://www.korewireless.com/super-sim/) using the **Event Streams**, [**FastAPI**](https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/), and [**Leaflet**](https://leafletjs.com/) using [**OpenAI Codex**](https://openai.com/codex/) |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +You can download the code from my [**GitHub repository here**](https://github.com/naturalfunction/KORE-SUPERSIM-heatmap) |

| 22 | +## ⭐ What the App Does |
| 23 | +Super SIM Heatmap provides: |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +- Real-time Super SIM event ingestion |
| 26 | +- Persistent storage of CloudEvents payloads |
| 27 | +- Dual online/offline heatmap layers |
| 28 | +- Timeline slider for replay |
| 29 | +- Device event feed with metadata |
| 30 | +- Click-to-pan tower visualization |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +--- |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +## 🌍 Why Visualize Super SIM Events? |
| 35 | +KORE SUPER SIM emits session lifecycle events such as: |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +- `connection.data-session.started` |
| 38 | +- `connection.data-session.updated` |
| 39 | +- `connection.data-session.ended` |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | +Visualizing them helps teams understand connectivity patterns and issues across geography and time. |
| 42 | + |

| 44 | + |
| 45 | +## 🧱 Architecture Overview |
| 46 | +``` |
| 47 | +FastAPI → Webhook ingestion |
| 48 | +SQLite → Raw event persistence |
| 49 | +SQLModel → ORM |
| 50 | +Leaflet → Heatmap rendering |
| 51 | +Jinja2 → Templates |
| 52 | +``` |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +--- |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | +## ⚡ Webhook Ingestion |
| 57 | +The webhook endpoint: |
| 58 | + |
| 59 | +``` |
| 60 | +POST /webhooks/supersim |
| 61 | +``` |
| 62 | + |
| 63 | +Validates, extracts, and persists raw event payloads. |
| 64 | + |
| 65 | +--- |
| 66 | + |
| 67 | +## 🔥 Dual-Layer Heatmap |
| 68 | +- Green = online |
| 69 | +- Red = offline |
| 70 | + |
| 71 | +State is inferred by latest event per ICCID. |
| 72 | + |
| 73 | +--- |
| 74 | + |
| 75 | +## ⏱ Timeline Scrubbing |
| 76 | +Scrub 00:00–23:59 and reconstruct fleet activity by timestamp. |
| 77 | + |
| 78 | +--- |
| 79 | + |
| 80 | +## 📋 Device Event Sidebar |
| 81 | +Shows: |
| 82 | + |
| 83 | +- ICCID |
| 84 | +- Tower |
| 85 | +- Network |
| 86 | +- RAT |
| 87 | +- Timestamp |
| 88 | + |
| 89 | +--- |
| 90 | + |
| 91 | +## 🤖 Synthetic Data Seeder |
| 92 | +Simulates START → UPDATE → END events across global cities. |
| 93 | + |
| 94 | +Example: |
| 95 | + |
| 96 | +``` |
| 97 | +.venv/bin/python scripts/seed_events.py --region naples --devices 50 --count 550 |
| 98 | +``` |
| 99 | + |
| 100 | +--- |
| 101 | + |
| 102 | +## 🧪 Manual cURL Tests |
| 103 | +Includes samples for all session lifecycle events. |
| 104 | + |
| 105 | +--- |
| 106 | + |
| 107 | +## 🖥 Web UI Overview |
| 108 | +- Device sidebar |
| 109 | +- Heatmap toggles |
| 110 | +- Timeline slider |
| 111 | +- Stats counters |
| 112 | + |
| 113 | +--- |
