Global Scouting System

[alicen]

Hey there CD, I have a little something that I'm glad to be rolling out just barely in time for the Palmetto Regional to be getting started.

A little background.. I'm an industrial designer, I also do mechanical engineering work, and have been in and around FIRST since 2002, both as a volunteer and a student competing. I decided to learn some code stuff by creating this fairly simple application.

It is a simple web-based scouting application that will return averages based on match information that is input.

Here is a direct link to the site: http://frcstats.org:8000/home/

It's not pretty, and I tried for a solid 24 hours to get it to not need the ":8000" and couldn't get it working. So if you know how to do that, please send me a PM! (running Django/Python with nginx and uwsgi on an AWS EC2)

I'm hoping that one team at every regional might be willing to put it the information for all of the teams in each match so that the database could be populated. This could even be done with a few people from several teams. The information put in will be available to anyone who wishes to access the site and look up any team's stats.

If you want to sign up your team or group of students to scout an event, I made this simple spreadsheet so there isn't overlap (I don't have that built in at the moment). Google Doc Link

All of the code that I wrote for this can be found on my github: https://github.com/alicen6/first_robotics

I'm currently working on adding a page to thank anyone who helps out by scouting an event or helping with any of the issues that I have. The future plans listed below are things I hope to implement before Champs.

Future Plans:
- Add a page where two team's stats can be viewed side by side
- Add ability to input 6 teams (red alliance/blue alliance) and generate a possible match outcome


Also, thoughts and comments are welcome!
