Here are suggestions that some have already offered...
|
| |
One stop shop. |
| |
Set up so it is easy to navigate and so that the most
interesting information can be linked to from the index page. |
| |
Website accessible at all times. |
| |
News and Notes during fire season. |
| |
A main page that might be on the
R5 FS server. But consider having some of the other info on another server that
has more flexibility for data entry and that can
have controlled access for some kinds of resource information. (Others please
elaborate on this.) |
| |
Links to regional and to national information -nice arrangement
on Jay's R3 site. |
| |
Design it so you don't have to move back and forth with the
little bar on the bottom to preview the information. The SW GACC site would be
better if you could see it all without moving that bar. Sometimes I have books
and lists and phones etc that I'm juggling and having to move that bar is a
pain in the a**. |
| |
Unit identifiers. |
| |
Would like to see an "unable to fill list" within the GACC. |
| |
Register availability via a link there. |
| |
Must have an interagency feeling to it. It's my opinion that
having a forest service template is not conducive to the interagency feeling,
even if the site is maintained by the forest service, it would be better to
have it be a blank (white) page with less agency busywork on the left margin.
This stuff is going to be critical. Forget the frills. Make it easy to read.
White background or offwhite is the easiest to read some research said. Could
it be hosted on the NIFC site? That would make more sense. |
| |
Make team information available with links to their sites, like
Ab's teams pages with rotation information national, regional, etc. The SW
GACC site doesn't have that and I miss having easy access. |
| |
EVERYTHING that is in Adobe Acrobat should be clearly labeled "PDF". This format should be a last resort if there is no way to enter the information simply as text on a webpage. PDF files are large, slow to impossible to load, difficult to read without printing and wasting paper, and often lock up the computer.
(Ab note: pdf files also can have "accessibility issues" as in
whether they're 508 compliant, another reason to avoid them.) |
