transient-watch-smart-access-of-data

This is an android application contested for NASA App Challenge. This application notifies interested astronomers with 'daily news' on the transient high-energy sky, based on information available from public pages at NASA, the European Space Agency, the Japanese Space Agency, etc.

The app collects information from a webpage(similiar like NASA resources) that has json-formatted data. At first, a script, resided on our sever checks whether there is any update of the previuos data of that webpage. If it finds any update, then it auto-generates a notification and a news featuring that update of the specific content.

In this way, all users who have installed this application are notified about the update of a content via a notification message in their corresponding android devices. And that notifications redirects himself/herself to the details of the update information of that content inside the application.
