Help stranded travelers find nearby attractions

An unfortunate reality of airline travel is that flights are occasionally canceled due to weather or maintenance issues. To make things easier on our travelers, we'd like to provide them with an application that identifies the nearest restaurants and hotels to the airport.

Deliverables

Your application should use html, css and have at least one Ajax request. You may use any freely available open source frameworks to help get the job done. We're primarily concerned with the UI. The wireframe attached is an example of how you might do this, but we would love for you to surprise us and come up with your own ideas.

If you love mobile apps, feel free to do an Android, iOS or Windows 8 app as a submission if you like.

Suggestion: Look at the Yelp API - documentation on search and location suggestion.

  • Meets Deliverables
