James Hindson developed public safety communication features for the bcgov/aqwarnings repository, focusing on air quality warnings and interactive mapping for wildfire smoke events. He created and published detailed warning documents for Northeast B.C., integrating HTML and Markdown for structured content and health guidance. Using JavaScript and the Leaflet library, James implemented interactive maps that visualize affected regions with polygons and provide accessible, actionable information to residents. His work emphasized data visualization and technical writing, resulting in clearer risk communication and a scalable framework for future events. The features delivered depth in both user experience and technical implementation within one month.
