While all the data ActionsportsNW wanted to present existed someplace on the web, it wasn't always readily available. Our programmers had to create systems to pull from Naval observatories, process raw data into human readable formats, calculate tide tables for dozens of locations, stream video from remote locales and make all of it work in realtime as visitors came to the site.
The final result was stunning. Landing on a location provided weather data at a glance, often with a streaming video from the very place you want to go. No single website had ever pulled such dispirit data from so many sources and made it work; it's almost impossible to convey how innovative the team was in creating this site, and we still view this as one of our greatest programming achievements.
