GOAL
The goal of SoundIQ is to make Northwest Straits Initiative data easily accessible and useful to a variety of users.
Overview
SoundIQ is the Northwest Straits Commission’s web-based application to share data collected by MRCs and the Commission in an easily-accessible map format. MRC data on SoundIQ can be viewed in combination with complementary data from other sources.
How it works
SoundIQ incorporates data from all seven Northwest Straits counties on a software platform called Geocortex, which supports the system for use on mobile devices.
