Software made using Java

Bear Conference 2002 GIS


This is a map portal that was used for the international bear conference. The resulting project is freely available online.

So what have I done? My main task were to design the look of the page. When I completed this design, we found that we were missing some features. As I have worked some on Java and applets before, I got to do this task. The applet received a lot of new features that we needed for this specific portal. The ambition level was as usual very high, and all details weren't schetched out at the start of the project. The old portal that were used earlier didn't have the required features for this project. Some of the functions I added, was support for several languages (only Norwegian was available earlier), implementation of tooltips in a version of Java which does not support this and drawing of lines between points of interest. Under the implementation of these functions I found several errors in the original version of the applet. These error were of course corrected, and the end result was an application which were more stable than the original one.

When these function were completed, the rest of the page had to be updated. Various solutions were discussed in order to get as good functionality as possible while usability was as good as possible. In addition I helped in designing the information windows, and to write a whole bunch of SQL. The end result was something we can stand for in the future.
