This document summarizes a presentation about building a real-time mapping application to track the "Team Jordan" expedition climbing Mount Everest. The application integrated social media and geolocation data from SPOT GPS to allow users to find and track the team, see status updates, photos, and videos in real-time. Challenges included server infrastructure, data formats, and standards. The final application was successful in sharing the team's experience with the world through interactive maps on the web and mobile.
