We all need to reduce our Carbon Footprints and for many businesses, flights are a major component of this. Your task is to prototype an online system to help a small company (~100 staff) reduce its footprint by optimising planned travel on an annual basis. Staff should be able to input potential business trips to other institutions, conferences and meetings as well as contacts or locations that it would be beneficial to visit if the opportunity arose. You should consider simple ways to collect this information and to display advice or suggestions during the planning of a trip.
