Mobile App Design & Development
Pioneering a process for the entire U.S. with the Vacant lot App As a joint project of the US EPA and Buffalo Sewer Authority, Cypress North worked together with the University of Buffalo to develop a technical solution for vacant lot assessment. Cypress North worked with the client to build a wizard style application for use on cellular data networks and Android tablets/phones to collect information in the field.
