boring-logging

Warning: This application is no longer being actively maintained!

Boring Logging was meant as a voice-based accessibility application to aid Civil Engineers with performing ground sample analysis by providing 3D sample data visualizations.

Voice-based assistance was enabled through the Speech Kitt voice assistant. Intuitive actions were chosen to help a user create items, remove items, update specific fields, and more, all from their voice.

Why?

It had come to our attention that Civil Engineers that were out in the field were relying solely on pencils and papers to record their data. Then, when they returned to the office they had to enter the data in a spread sheet.

We hoped to streamline this process by making the data readily availabe immediately after collection.

Follow instructions on creating your own firebase project here

Then, open the src/firebase.js file and update the production and development config variables to your project's specific configuration.

const prodConfig = {
  apiKey: "AIzaSyBodnZKCgvoqaH2xk2L2sukR8-WXXWqukc",
  authDomain: "boring-logging-prod.firebaseapp.com",
  databaseURL: "https://boring-logging-prod.firebaseio.com",
  projectId: "boring-logging-prod",
  storageBucket: "",
  messagingSenderId: "206276382684"
};

const devConfig = {
  apiKey: "AIzaSyDV5I-uFl20xsvkC0IrRxx9On03gEmvheA",
  authDomain: "boring-logging-dev.firebaseapp.com",
  databaseURL: "https://boring-logging-dev.firebaseio.com",
  projectId: "boring-logging-dev",
