Design

The design for this first project is rather simple. We will build a simple database application using Rails and create a main Kiosk class in which to store the kiosk information including its address, longitude, and latitude information. After populating the database with the kiosk information and address, we will use a geolocation service to discover its longitude and latitude. We store the information in the same table. Next, we will take the kiosk information and mash it up with Google Maps and display the kiosks as pushpins on the online map and place its information inside an info box attached to each pushpin.
