Journey Plotter
-
I’m proud to present to you Journey Plotter Mobile, made possible by the Onsen UI.
Journey Plotter is an application for visualizing journeys of Royal Navy vessels of the World War 1-era, or Arctic voyages of United States vessels from the mid 19th century onwards.
For a given day, you can see the ship’s position and read the log-book entries that describe activities on board.
Select from hundreds vessels, the number is still increasing, from the following services:
- Royal Navy
- United States Navy
- United States Revenue Service/Coast Guard
- United States Coast & Geodetic Survey
- United States Fish Commission
Journey Plotter makes use of data from original Royal Navy and United States log-books that has been digitised and then made available by Naval-History.Net (http://www.naval-history.net).
The log-books have been transcribed by volunteers on the Old Weather (http://www.oldweather.org) project and edited into a more readable form by volunteers on the Naval-History.Net project.

Wow, good job @Journey-Plotter ! Looks like a very interesting app. Did you use Onsen UI v1 or v2? Hope you sell a lot :smile:
-
@Fran-Diox Thanks. :)
I’ve used Onsen UI v1, wanted to wait with UI v2 until it’s out of Beta.

@Journey-Plotter Well, we have Release Candidate now so its API should not change too much. Hope you choose Onsen UI 2 for your next app :)
