Freshwater Biodiversity portal added to KnowledgeBase

September 2010 - KnowledgeBase, the online resource for documents and data for the Gulf of Maine watershed, added a significant new portal feature related to freshwater biodiversity in September. Yellahoose developed the site's collections pages with Peter Vaux, at the University of Maine, and a new dynamic species mapper was added to the web site.



Mapping development was done using Google Maps API version 3.0. Yellahoose used the MySQL RDBMS and PHP and Python programming. KnowledgeBase and features used by it and its linked sites are hosted on CentOS and Debian, two versions of Linux.



Web hosting for the KB site is by Packawhallop.

September 2010 - Scorebuilders, the Scarborough-based provider of physical therapy training and license examination preparation tools and software, launched its new web and ecommerce site in September. LuDesign Studios and SlickFish Studios did the great graphic design work. And Yellahoose was brought in to rearchitect data management, programming and end-user experience for Scorebuilders' online ordering.



Work included programming in PHP and ASP, working with and integrating orders and users for online courses in Microsoft SQL Server, web server (IIS) and Windows Server administration - not to mention needs assessment and planning development of and getting Scorebuilders' feedback on the online purchase experience.
