IPSDI Exposure Tracker
A secure way to record exposures, since firefighting isn't getting any easier...
Project Overview
The IPSDI Exposure Tracker empowers you to take control of your exposure history with a comprehensive, secure record that stays with you.
Leadership at IPSDI tasked me with designing and building the Exposure Tracker frontends for web, iOS, and Android.
Technical Challenges
The app needed to be easy to learn and simple to use. This meant auto-saving, minimizing taps/clicks, and providing clear UI feedback would be paramount.
We built with Ionic React to deploy the same app across web, iOS, and Android from a single codebase. While this saved significant development time, it required solving platform-specific challenges around navigation, native features, and UI consistency.
The app also integrates live analytics data from IPSDI Analytics via API. I designed a simple interface that automatically suggests incidents using existing exposure data without requiring additional user input (see example below).
The new apps launched at the end of 2025, and are helping figherfighters and first responders accurately self-document their exposures.
