Weather service for fisherman’s
TASK
To create the best Australian Fishing weather site. The platform must be so called fishermen community having on board Weather information, POI (points of interests), Trip Planner, Forums, Fishing Factors and other features, useful for fishermen.
DESCRIPTION
Our goal was to build a website with weather at its core to enable Australian fishermen to increase their fishing effectiveness, then provide a feature set that makes it easy to access fishing related services and increase the fishing body of knowledge through articles and a forum. We have worked hard to build this website and we are proud of it. Despite the fact, that Fish Ranger was built for fishermen, the site became popular among ordinary Australians as well. We hope you enjoy using it www.fishranger.com.au
PROTOTYPING
Here at Fish Ranger we have assembled a team of Subject Matter Experts, Meteorologists and IT Professionals who strive for perfection in every aspect of their work. The main challenge for our team was to collect a giant numbers of weather data from different source of information in real time and at the same time ensuring high speed performance of the site. Despite time difference, we could achieve good cooperation between owner (based in Australia) and our team (based in Ukraine). The innovative implemented idea to achieve was combining weather forecast with observed data to ensure fishermen with maximum weather data accuracy. We have created such a user-friendly interface that allows users to navigate easily throughout the site since their first visit, what is very important for fishermen in open ocean.
