Programming is my game and mapping is my middle name. This site has large visual graphics to drive users through the site in a resonsponvie and mobile-friendly format, but my favorite part was the biggest challenge on the site; the map. This map is unique in that in addition to displaying specific locations and information about the location, we also show rooms and capabilities at each location through pinpoint icons...44 to be exact. Check it out!

What's better than creating maps as part of my job? Nothing; except when you combine it with creating maps of my favorite trails in Copper Harbor! This site was awesome to work on because of the unique social media integration, where we pull the Facebook likes, cover photo, and posts into the website home page. We also built this site so CHTC reps can log-in and make edits to the home page without ever looking at the site's backend. We support them; so they can support our trails.

Giving users a map view of countless locations is something I enjoy doing. When M Group came to our team to create a complex map with filters for property types and the ability to show single and cluster locations on a map; I knew we'd be up for the challenge.
