Objective:
The goal of this project was to produce a mobile application to increase the efficiency of the deadweight survey process. This mobile application, WeightCheck, will leverage modern mobile technology to provide relevant weight survey data on the deck plate where it is most needed. The project worked to eliminate the double and triple entry of data that occurs to support the deadweight survey. In addition, the team worked to eliminate paper-based processes around the survey and being transitioning to a digital process. The team identified several key features and process improvements during the course of this project and was awarded a follow-on Research Announcement project.
