Dynamic Charting of Market Data
	open-source, open-standards web application (java, sql)
		As early as 1996, the California Avocado Commission offered its growers the opportunity to access basic market data in visual representation on the web. The original backend system to make these pre-plotted daily charts possible was anything but basic. In fact, the original implementaiton was such a complex headache of proprietary Microsoft Access and Visual Basic kluged together with nightly hands-on FTP that we initiated a complete redesign to achieve:
		platform independence on both the client and server side human independence - not dependant on any particular developer or maintainer. migrate from proprietary microsoft access solution to one based on widely available open-source software (postgresql, apache) migrate from proprietary data formats (microsoft access) to widely recognized data standards (sql, jdbc, http) truly dynamic charting and overlays of market data
		With these goals in mind we worked with the original system developers to outsource the project. My role in the redesign included evaluation of the original interface, the initial goals and specifications for redesign, rfp preparation, and vendor selection. the portable charting solution proved such a success that the client recently paid for additional development of a special cd-rom to distribute to all 6,000 avocado growers, which will provide a hybrid desktop/internet version of the Java database client.
