*works in progress: vessels are still being added to Vessels page, distance and duration of Incomplete rows (status I) is still being added, birthdays of rowers are being added, other minor functionality elements are being improved or implemented. If the team picture hasn't been uploaded, the boats group will be displayed.
How to use this database:
Here are some examples of the benefits of the automated database vs manual. Previously each row needed to be manually added to several of the static subpages here.
Today, filters and sorting can be used to request automatically compiled statistics from literally every page from the old website. There are also endless new combinations of filters that can now be applied. If for example we would like to see every expedition with mixed crews, 6 crew members, on the atlantic ocean, rowing east to west, here is the set of filters.
How it was achieved? Go to:
► Crew, and select: six and mixed
► Route, and select: Atlantic and east to west
► Press Filter button
Explore it! It is intuitive and has many surprises! Explore hover.
The former website will remain and will serve as a museum of 4 decades of the administration of ORSI.
