The Department of Education’s National Center for Education Statistics turned to Blue Raster to enhance the content and accessibility of their School District Demographics System (SDDS) by deploying it to mobile devices. Using ArcGIS Server 10.1 and JavaScript API 3.0, our team developed this HTML5 application to run in a tablet browser (Apple iPad Safari or Android browsers), giving users instant access to education statistics at the state and school-district level. This mobile tool allows users to create custom maps by selecting from a menu of options, including U.S. Census demographic statistics and math and reading assessments (NAEP). SDDS Map Viewer Mobile was released at the NCES STATS-DC 2012 Data Conference today in Washington, DC.
