Google Maps Cycle Routes
An interactive mapping platform built on the JavaScript Google Maps API v3, PostgreSQL backend database, and database calls with Java, JavaScript,
jQuery, HTML, and CSS. To get the routing data, we used a custom opensource routing algorithm to create a customized biking route based on biker
preference for elevation and Strava and Twitter-based areas-of-interest around Duluth MN.
I collaborated with colleagues to build a great app together, which, up until Google changed their licensing from free to paid, worked seemlessly!
Needless to say, if you visit the app, it doesn't work well anymore. Watch the short video on what it used to do. We hope one day to fix it again and consider paying the fees.
See this app in its full glory!
Non-performant until we pay Google to use their geocoding API. Visit the live site to test breaking it!
Python Jupyter Notebook & Tweets Map
An exciting exploration into configuring, mapping, and teaching Python, the JavaScript Leaflet API, and HTML all wrapped together using the Jupyter Python Notebook. I used this data for a demo I gave at our local Duluth .NET Meetup in 2018. I collected my own Twitter data after spending a day at Valley Fair Amusement Park!
FYI...this html page was generated from a python script using the Python-Leaflet api, so yes, the code is gigantic! But it was generated and I didn't have to code it, so why not use it? Check out the full presentation and demo data.
Let the tweeting begin!
World 9 Gaming Conventions: Megaman Bubbleman Style!
Inspired by the world of Megaman in the Bubbleman level, the retro gaming convention company, World 9 Gaming, has set up video game rooms for conventions across the Midwest and beyond. I created this web map using Mapbox to publish tilesets with custom icons for those Megaman enthusiasts. The classic basemaps are no longer available, but this image shows the previous version.
Mapbox basemaps were retired.
