Collect data from users and store in a (flat file) database.
|
Scenario: Write your own! Possibilities:
-
Travel tips. Invite people to write comments, recommendations about interesting sites, restaurants, hotels in a particular area.
-
Environmental information: Collect from different parts of a country or region observation data (such as bird watch) or environmental samplings (such as water or air quality).
-
Comments and opinions: Collect at least some quantitative data to analyze.
|
Implementation: Design the user interface to collect the data from an HTML form and accumulate it in a Unix file. Write the Perl CGI script to handle this. Write an HTML page with a Java applet to view all or part of the collection of data. Possibilities:
-
show a map with points of data collection marked
-
show graphs that analyze people's opinions by various demographics - age, region, etc.
