First Saturday at RiverWatch part 1

Cape Fear RiverWatch presented The first Saturday meetings started in 2008 with Dr. Larry Cahoon and Rich Huber from UNCW. These two professors presented an environmental seminar on Riverrun Technology. Riverrun is an interactive web based data tool used to visualize water quality data for the Cape Fear River.

I figure there were at least 30 people there.


The 'Talk' centered around the RiverRun project build by Dr. Huber and Cahoon. It's a 'Data visualization tool' that displays the data collected from the river over time in a format that allows users to answer questions about water quality. It's an excellent decision making tool for policy makers and learning tool for students.
