Subject: Soliciting Comments on the Customizable Mapping Widget
and Mobile Web Page Through March 19, 2014
NWS is seeking user comments on the Customizable Mapping Widget
and Mobile Web Page through March 19, 2014. The NWS Center
Weather Services Unit (CWSU) in Fort Worth, TX (ZFW) and the
Dallas/Fort Worth Forecast Office (FWD) are testing a new
Customizable Mapping Widget and Mobile Web Page service. The
service brings together a variety of geospatial data products on
the same background map for analysis and decision making.
The version of the tool customized for the CWSU is a Google Map-
based tool that contains many of the data sets necessary to
provide the CWSU with the flexibility to create customized maps
in service of the FAA. The customized page will also be evaluated
on partner smartphones as the un-embedded version of the same
tool functions on a wide range of todays smart phone devices.
The Decision Support Map, along with a description of how to use
the map, is available at:
