Charlottesville Sidewalk Mapping

The Shop

à la carte web design and database consulting

• The Shop is a pro bono IT consulting and problem-solving service for nonprofit organizations in Charlottesville and Central Virginia. We assign small groups of volunteers to work directly with someone at a nonprofit to solve a specific issue with tech, data, or web design.

  

City Streetlights

• We applied data wrangling to consolidate various data sources about individual streetlights from Charlottesville and its energy provider, Dominion Energy, into a functional analytic-ready database. We leveraged the information to develop a user-friendly web application from which residents can readily obtain information about streetlight specifications such as light emission quality, bulb replacement history, and energy consumption.

  

Charlottesville Housing Hub

• We developed a full stack web application that helps local residents search for housing, landlords, or real estate agents.
