THE CALIFORNIA ENDOWMENT
Geographical Life Expectancy Web Application
Strata designed and developed The California Endowment's "Geographical Life Expectancy" tool for their Building Healthy Communities website. This powerful web resource, introduced on the TCE website by George Takei, identifies and displays your average life expectancy based on a user identified address. The identified address is then compared to census data and your corresponding life expectancy is displayed on The California Endowment website.
The tool consists of a back-end database created using MySQL and an embedded AJAX lookup to pull data from the Census. The tool was then embedded into a WordPress site with an option to port the code to additional Endowment WordPress sites.
