Expedia National Parks Page
Expedia National Parks Promo
I was tasked with creating an interactive map of the United States that people could click through to various national parks. Some parks were considered "featured" while other parks were just to be dots of the location. This was done with a fake grid overlay that was generated with Javascript and then the parks were plotted on the map with coordinates.
I was also tasked with pulling in dynamic blog content with their "National Parks" tag which we were able to do through a simple JSON call. All code will be repurposed for future projects.

I did the coding of this page utilizing internal development tools. I did not do the design.
