Atlas Initiative

Campus

Atlas Initiative. A campus platform ecosystem spanning navigation, presence, and connected services for institutional operations.

  • FastAPI
  • Hono
  • React
  • PWA

Atlas is a campus platform ecosystem. It ties wayfinding, presence, and connected services into a single surface so students, staff, and visitors can navigate and operate inside the campus with shared infrastructure.

Initiative

The Initiative is the platform’s connective layer: the campus services, the institutional data model, and the operations shell that the Navigation and Presence surfaces sit on. It exists so that campus data, services, and devices can speak the same language across products.

Initiative scope

  • Campus service directory and infrastructure metadata
  • Shared data model and operations shell for downstream products
  • Connects the Navigation and Presence surfaces into a single platform
  • Operational backbone for institutional campus data

Atlas Navigation is a digital mapping and wayfinding platform designed to help students, staff, and visitors navigate the DiCNHS campus. All entities can use the PWA-based application to access the navigation platform, ensuring it is functional offline.

Navigation capabilities

  • Digital campus map for DiCNHS
  • PWA delivery with offline-first access
  • Routing for students, staff, and visitors
  • Shared institutional source of truth via the Initiative

Presence

The flagship feature to mitigate student truanting through anonymously logging their whereabouts within the school campus, including in/out schedules and attendance. Borrowed from the CCTS project and contact-tracing proximity, except it is based on the Facial Recognition and QR-based logging per establishment and classroom, managed by Teachers and Staff. The streamlined entry protocols help teachers, parents, and guardians confirm that their student is on campus.

Presence capabilities

  • Anonymized whereabouts logging across campus
  • In/out schedules and attendance captured per student
  • Facial recognition and QR-based logging at establishments and classrooms
  • Staff-managed entry protocols inherited from the CCTS contact-tracing project
  • Parent and guardian visibility into campus presence
