Socrata Map Mash-Up and Manual

June 4, 2013 - 21:19 -- Carl DiSalvo
Summary: 

When researching mapping platforms we discovered that a combination of Socrata and CrowdMap would address the majority of the features we were looking for. So, rather than building a redundant platform or application we constructed a map mashup using a combination of Socrata and CrowdMap. In addtion we created a user manual for Socrata, so that other users could create similar maps with ease.

Why we are working on this problem: 

Our interest is in supporting local food systems. A basic problem is documenting the existing resources / assets that comprise a local food system. Many powerful mapping tools exists, but most of these are beyond the means of community groups. Our goal is to make avaialbe simple, inexpensive, and effective mapping tools for use in documenting and nutruring local food systems.

What we accomplished during the event: 

We constructed a map mashup using a combination of Socrata and CrowdMap. In addtion we created a user manual for Socrata, so that other users could create similar maps with ease.

Small Business How Do I

June 2, 2013 - 10:57 -- Ann Thomas
Website/App store links:

Summary: 

The Census Bureau receives large numbers of calls daily from small business owners wanting information that can help them evaluate future locations for their businesses. The Bureau currently has an enormous amount of data. The project task is to find a way to extract specific data by county and deliver it in a user-friendly interface on the web.

Yolanda Davis

Monica Dukes

Barbara Guillory

Ann Thomas

Maurice McFarland

Judson Stacer

Abdul Idriss

 

What we accomplished during the event: 

We  found that the current API in use to extract data from the Census Bureau's datasets was not efficient. We created an additional webservice that worked with elements of the API. We also created a website that utilizes our webservice. As of now, it is only a prototype as it has limited functionality. An added plus is that the web service we developed may be used to support other applications that may need data from the Census Bureau.

Summary: 

We brainstormed the portal idea futher. We started to create a detailed taxonomy (Diane & Alesia), threw together a rapid protype in WordPress (Landon), played around with Socrata databases (Jack & Terry), create a mockup for what a project detail page might look like (Chinedu), threw together a rapid prototype of a search page with Ruby on Rails (Luigi)

Chuukese Picture Dictionary - Solution

June 2, 2013 - 10:14 -- Rosario Robinson
Summary: 

The picture dictionary application was an opportunity to learn about a different culture, language challenges and how Peace Corps volunteers have challenges with very little resources.  Our goal was to design a simple web app that would display pictures with translation of English and Chuukese text on either side.

 

Our Team

Daniel Flores (DTM Creative Genius)

Gopi Jayaprakash (airwatch)

Rose Robinson (Anita Borg Institute)

Rosario Robinson (American University)

Bernard "Sid" Robinson (Campbell High School)

 

 

 

Why we are working on this problem: 

This picture dictionary application would be great to have this web application available for all countries where Peace Corps volunteers are struggling with language as they become integrated into the communities.

What we accomplished during the event: 

We identified some of the key components necessary not only to deliver basic functionality, but we accomplished a lot of the conceptual design.

1. We completed conceptual design of the web application.

2. Designed tech design architecture to support application framework

3. Held customer discovery with Peace Corps volunteer in Micronesia who submitted challenge

4. Published initial code to our github

Landing Page Design

 

Progress made since the event: 

We collaborated on concept and design of the application. Peace Corps arranged for us to have a customer discovery with volunteers in Micronesia and we were able to design the technical architect.  Most of the plugs are in place, but just need to connect everything.

Next steps: 

Need to pull all the components together (art work, design, code and database access) to produce prototype.

Why we are working on this problem: 

We are working on this because it will help Burundian citizens to present theirs problems easily using modern technology such as web application and sms based 

system.This will facilitate them to provide information by using those tools and make follow up according to the status of their cases.

We choose this project because it will give choice to citizens to use either mobile or web application instead of going CAJAC office or CAJAC mobile to announce their problems.
