Trail Prescriptions: helping healthcare providers promote fitness

Idea

As public health becomes an increasing focus of local governments and regional collaborations, the practice of "Park Prescriptions" has emerged. Basically, doctors and healthcare workers prescribe physical activity to people at risk of heart disease, weight-related health effects, and more.

Description

• Provide healthcare practitioners with an easy way to enter an address, and get back a list of nearby trails.
• Provide practitioners with ability to select the right trail for the patient in question based on length and activity.
• Provide practitioners with ability to assign a schedule of trail use to the patient.
