The team worked with the Crown of the Continent Research Learning Center (CCRLC), at Glacier National Park, to address traffic congestion using webcams. Two webcams were developed: a solar-powered stationary webcam and a GPS mobile webcam. The webcams were built using Raspberry Pis and connected to the internet with cellular antennas. Because the webcams relied on cellular service, it was necessary to develop a cellular heatmap. Finally, a website was designed to display the images that the webcams captured.
