Point Poppy is a web-based application that gives information about the national parks in California. Currently, people need to create separate Google searches for finding a park to visit, as well as separate searches for information about that park. Our app aggregates searching, exploring, and learning features when people want to visit a California national park. We provide an interactive map with locations of parks and respective park and trail descriptions, trailhead locations, images, weather information, and link for directions in a way that is intuitive to the user and encourages exploring California's beautiful national parks.
