July 2004 - CJS and Partners Complete Web Data Portal for Coastal Communities of Southwest Washington
CJS, in association with Pacific International Engineering of Edmonds, Washington and Pangaea Information Technologies Inc., of Chicago, Illinois, have recently completed the redesign and development of an information clearinghouse and web-based coastal "data portal" for a range of information and data products produced during the course of numerous scientific and engineering studies undertaken along the southwest Washington shoreline and sponsored by the Coastal Communities of Southwest Washington.  The internet portal (http://www.washington-coastal.com/) provides access to basic information about the Coastal Communities and the projects they have sponsored including linkages to various project reports. Users may search for and download detailed coastal data by specific region and data type through a hierarchical data query system. Geospatial data can be viewed directly in an ArcIMS web mapping interface. Users also have the ability to view near real-time weather and other oceanographic data for select locations.
