Ski Tracker Application
VIEW BETA DEMO | PROJECT DOCUMENTATION (pdf)
PROJECT BRIEF:
Concepted and completed in 2001. This was the first commerical Werkplace project. I concepted, visually designed, and architected/blueprinted the CMS. View the project documents for a detailed description.
Essentially, this was a desktop web-enabled application with a component backend that allowed for quick build outs of custom Content Management System per ski resort. A CMS with a CMS. The front end of both the application and the CMS is in Flash. Templates allowed customers to deploy advertising from a library. For instance, custmers could deploy a "Lift Ticket" discount ad into the application based if sales were slow. The application's appearence and elements changed depending on live weather conditions, ticket sales, and open trails and lifts. We had envisioned future versions utilizing GPS tags embedded in lift tickets that could tranpose skiers geo-location onto the map.
SOLUTION:
Due to disagreement over licensing and marketing with the programmer, this product was never sold or implemented in the market. It was, however, an incredible technical and conceptual achievement.
