Project scope
- What is the main goal for this project?
-
The main goal for this project is to analyze and optimize the performance of the Antarctic Institute of Canada's databases, ensuring data is retrieved and stored efficiently. This will involve several different steps for the students, including:
- Analyzing the existing databases and identifying areas for improvement.
- Developing a plan for optimizing the databases.
- Implementing the plan and testing the results.
- Researching new technologies and techniques to improve the performance of the databases.
- Documenting the process and results.
- What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?
-
By the end of the project, students should demonstrate:
- Understanding of the existing databases and their current performance.
- Identification of areas for improvement and optimization.
- Ability to develop and implement a plan for optimizing the databases.
- Understanding of new technologies and techniques to improve the performance of the databases.
Bonus steps would include:
- Testing the optimized databases with users and accounting for additional parameters.
Final deliverables should include:
- All source material.
- A written report explaining the design process and outcomes.

The Antarctic Institute of Canada is a non-profit Canadian charity organization founded by former Antarctic researcher Austin Mardon in 1985. Its original aim was to lobby for the federal government of Canada to increase the extent of Canadian research in the Antarctic. However, AIC slowly diversified and initiated programs for students to publish Antarctic research in newspapers and academic journals. These days, the AIC supports academic writing, research, and multimedia in many fields, expanding far beyond the organization’s original focus on Antarctica.
