The United States Coast Guard selected us to build their Houston Air Station Website. After considering the specialized nature of their site we created a design that was visually appealing, flexible in scale and professional as well as organized in it's content presentation. They were very pleased with their design and contracted us to maintain it as well.
Shortly after their new site was up, Hurricane Katrina hit the gulf coast and they needed a quick visual way to portray their active part in the rescue efforts. They asked us to create a birds eye view of their performance during that emergency response situation.
With nothing more than a spreadsheet list of helicopter arrivals and departures, we developed a "flash movie," that shows a moving, depiction of the path of Hurricane Katrina, arrivals and departures of H-60's and H-65 helicopters, dynamic number of helicopters in the cities, and a dynamic time line from August 28 to September 3, 2005 that comes complete with dragable pause and replay features.
Coast Guard officials say they are "very pleased with the results and realistic depiction of the coast guard helicopters dispatched during Hurricane Katrina " and believe the program serves as a valuable tool that will aide in future emergency response planning.
We are proud to be a part of something so valuable to an organization that has such importance to our country. This was an intriguing project that pulled raw data, into a concise format easy to understand at a glance.
