EcoHunters
Built with a theme of sustainability at its heart, EcoHunters is meant for users to pinpoint areas of environmental distress in their relative locations. For example, different items such as "Hazard" or "Waste" can be pinpointed to a user's location - these points from multiple users will accumulate and can be further analyzed using the heatmap feature, which will allow local organizations and communities to identify areas that need to be addressed.

Plan-it Pal
*Note: This is a picture of UVA's own SIS, which Plan-it Pal's functionality replicated in terms of its course search, add/drop, and approval/rejection feature for students and faculty.* This was created for my Advanced Software Development class, where we passed all requirements for this application. Now, it is hard to open because the person in charge of the database has it closed off.
