Fencing WebStream and Referee Travel Map

July 21st, 2010

I just completed a new push from the test server onto the live one. Two major updates:

Referee Travel Map
I modified the referee locator tool to be something more visual and (hopefully, eventually) useful. Now, it will visually display average price data for a location. Here is how it works:

You load up the page. It detects the closest airport to your location and executes a search to find the cheapest Destination airports. These are the average round-trip ticket prices (measured by purchase date 2-4 weeks from flight date) to get from your airport to the marker on the map. I picked this as the default, because I feel its easier to grasp this way. Click on the Radio Button, changing it from “Origin” to “Destination”, it’ll show you the reverse — how much it costs round trip, on average, to get from the marker airport to your airport.

You can enter in almost anything (city name, airport code, etc) into the search box in order to obtain new results. It will automatically find the closest (and/or cheapest, if multiple airports are present) airport and use it. The price range slider will hide/show results based on the slider’s positioning. The Departure/Arrival dates are used to modify the dates for which the price data is obtained.

If there are questions, feel free to add a comment here or contact us via other means.

Fencing WebStream
It is what it seems to be. A big aggregator for news, blog posts, videos, photos, tweets, podcasts, etc.. Hopefully it would be a good way for someone to discover new fencing media. More content is being added daily.
