Local Ground - Spreadsheet

All in one easy-to-use data management tool.

Return to Local Ground Overview

Problem

Before the spreadsheet, there was no easy way to visually organize and edit data collected by users.

Approach

I studied the capabilities of HandsOnTable to better understand the task of managing data at a more browser-friendly level. Therefore, I implemented various features that combined both data management and visual organization and editing aspects from HandsOnTable.

Technologies Used

  • HandsOnTable

  • Marionette

  • Local Ground REST API

Results

The spreadsheet became very easy to use for beginners. For example, students from a 4th grade science class in Rosa Park Elementary recorded soil data using the spreadsheet as part of a research project.
