Case Study
Exploring how we help brands capture stories through photography.
The Problem
The Himalayan Trail lacked a centralized digital platform to visualize and share crucial trail data across its vast expanse. Without an interactive map or live environmental information, hikers, researchers, and local communities struggled to access reliable, real-time insights. Additionally, developers faced challenges integrating trail data into their own apps due to the absence of open, accessible APIs.
Objective 1
An Interactive Studio
The studio feature offers an immersive experience for users to explore the majestic Himalayan ranges along the Great Himalayan Trail. Visitors can view live weather updates, navigate detailed hiking routes within each trail, and discover custom points of interest, all presented on a dynamic, custom-built Mapbox interface.
Objective 2
Trail Editor for the Mapper Community
The platform features a powerful trail editor that empowers our mapper community to collaboratively map, update, and refine trail data across the Great Himalayan Trail. This tool supports real-time editing, ensuring that trail information remains accurate, up-to-date, and comprehensive for all users.
Objective 3
Contributor Dashboard
A custom-built dashboard empowers the contributor community to easily add, update, and manage various Points of Interest along the Great Himalayan Trail. This tool fosters collaboration and keeps trail data rich, accurate, and continuously evolving.
Objective 4
Open-Source APIs for Developers
The project provides open-source APIs, empowering developers and hobbyists to access real-time trail data, weather updates, and Points of Interest. These APIs enable seamless integration into personal projects and applications, fostering innovation and expanding the Himalayan Trail’s digital ecosystem.
