Product Name:
Experimental Google Map Display Service of NWS Weather Data
Geographical Scope:
Regional
Description:
Utilization of Google Maps across National Weather Service (NWS) web pages has proven very popular for both users and NWS webmasters and Information Technology Officers (ITO). An increasing number of NWS webmasters and ITOs are creating diverse Google Map service applications to display various existing NWS data sets in a more convenient manner for web users. It is impossible to issue individual PDDs for the large number of experimental Google Map applications being developed across Western Region (WR). This umbrella PDD, as defined in NWSI 10-102, allows WR webmaster and ITO creativity in producing experimental Google Map applications, while managing implementation and project tracking and information sharing. Requirements defined in PDD.
