The 2005 team was responsible for the creation and completion of a Watershed Education Video for Audubon Arkansas on behalf of the EPA funded “Integrated Experiential Streambank Restoration and Demonstration Initiative: College Branch”.

Several media sources were used to compile a thorough short to be distributed to local water policy makers and planners, students of diverse ages and backgrounds, educators, and available on-line for the general public.

By employing a combination of the latest 3D visualization tools, digital video and web development the CRATE team developed several visualizations which focused on a local stream, College Branch located on the University of Arkansas campus.

This year's team members were made up of John Birke of Greenland High School and Sean Sallings of the University of Arkansas. Students used a combination of software which included Sketch-Up, Softimage, Adobe Premiere Pro and used the online resources, GeoStor and the NWA Image Viewer.
