Projects
Snotel Weather Data VISUALIZER
I built this site to provide a better, more intuitive platform for backcountry travelers to access and assess winter conditions in the backcountry. It was built using reactjs on the front end, and python on the back end. I built an API on top of the National Water and Climate Center’s Web service. The site is hosted using AWS: S3 and CloudFront on the front end, Lmabda and API Gateway on the back end.
