+## collectd
+
+This flows converts messages received from collectd into thin-edge measurements
+
+### Description
+
+Messages are received from collectd over the MQTT topics `collectd/$HOSTNAME/$GROUP/$MEASUREMENT`.
+
+These messages are CSV encoded (using `':'` column separators) and contains a unix timestamp followed by the measurement value.
