Client had 7 offices each connected via a T1. Each office had a Windows 2003 server with nightly backups via tape. Each system had roughly 100 Gigabyes of data to backup. Existing issues were that complete automation was impossible because individual office managers had to replace tapes, recovery was slow and required searching individual  tapes for the correct data, and the high cost of gigabyte tapes.

Investigated technologies and built from scratch web-system used to manage of deployment, monitoring, reporting, TFTP updates, calculations, and real-time display of data from sensors deployed along roads and connected via mobile traffic.
