Authors: Dan Levine, Jeff Vreeland, Linda Schieb

The Center for Disease Control and Prevention wanted to modernize off their existing Interactive Hearth Disease and Stroke Atlas by converting from a Flex-Based web application to a JavaScript application and to make enhancements to the capabilities. The goal was to perform the migration to support new web templates while also giving them a responsive web design that would allow the atlas to be used on mobile devices. We will present this migrations process, best practices, and implementation.
