iTravelTrack is a web application that enables organisations to track the international travel plans and safe arrivals of their employees or customers. The application has a simple interface which can be used to manage group access at varying levels and can be accessed using any mobile or web device. Once the travel information has been inputted, a complete travel itinerary including a list of activities and traveller details is produced. Travel risks are then assessed and monitored, making it easier to co-ordinate travel plans centrally and simplifying record keeping.

Business: MHN supported the client throughout the product development cycle, from providing initial feasibility and cost assessments, to building a proof of concept prototype. The current version of the application is a result of further development based on intensive user-based testing and customer feedback. MHN continues to work closely with the client to provide further product development support.

Technology: iTravelTrack is written in the Lift framework in the Scala programming language. Through the use of this powerful functional and object oriented programming language, the code base is both succinct and efficient. The site provides mapping using the ESRI JavaScript mapping API, provides up to date FCO travel risk information, allows checkins through text or online and allows itineraries to be exported to csv, ical and kml (mapping) formats.
