Pajarito Trails Initiative Prototypes PTS Calendar (Prototype)

 In order to demonstrate what a Pajarito Trail Series calendar could be like, volunteers have prototyped a Pajarito Trails Series calendar using the Google Calendar platform. It is a highly interactive calendar that includes all events and activities we identified through our research.

Features:

  • Interactivity Features
    • User selectable views (day, week, month, agenda/schedule)
    • User selectable "tracks" may be added in the future 
    • Intuitive date navigation and selection
    • searchable (for instance, seraching on "Bandelier" filters for Bandelier-related events.)
    • print capability
    • A single click adds this calendar to users of gmail and Google Calendars own calendar where it can be clicked on and off.
    • The calendar and individual events can be forwarde by email to others with just a click.
  • Configuration
    • Prototype uses a description field template to standardize event/activity entries
  • Administrative Features
    • Hosts/Organizers can be given authorities to add and edit their own events (let me know if I can add you.)
      • supports easy duplication of events to make it easier to enter new events
      • supports recurring events
      • entries and edits auto-synced
      • supports ical feeds
  • The Google platform costs zero, but may not offer the look and feel we ultimately desire.

 

The calendar is embeddable with code supplied by the facilitator. The standalone web address for the calendar is https://tinyurl.com/PajaritoTrailsSeries
