Intended Use
Based on an aircraft’s location, the software:
Finds suitable runways for emergency landing Distance from aircraft (do we have enough fuel)? Could get creative; use data from Airbus or
Boeing, situations such as no engine landing
Or other ideas such as finding times/dates for
scheduled flights, etc.

Possible Uses

restaurants in a local area.
Could be used by tourists to know where the best places to
go during their visit.

the beginning.
Can also be used to see how the top ranked businesses
are doing so well so new or old businesses could try to adopt a similar structure.

What is Project Gutenberg
Project Gutenberg offers 50,000+ ebooks
to download or read online.
Michael Hart, the founder of Gutenberg
also invented the eBook and designed this website to encourage readers from anywhere in the world.

Features/Uses
As you can see, Gutenberg has a catalog, separation by
genre, different languages, mobile site, etc.
With the amount of books the Gutenberg has and the
resources it gives you to find them, using a data stream from Gutenberg could be very useful to college students.
When writing a research paper, in the English Major,
finding excerpts from books isn’t the toughest thing in the world, but finding their exact page number and citation information could get cumbersome. Making an application to pull a book’s info straight from the website and cite it automatically would save research writers a lot
- f time.
