Canon Euro 2004 - Canon site to allow Euro 2004 fans to search for photos taken by Canon staff in Portugal. Canon staff members took photos of the fans. The fans were then given a postcard with their photo reference on it. This allowed them to enter their reference on the website and find their photo. Canon staff members uploaded the photos to the website overnight and a script ran in the morning which categorised all recent photos and put them in a database.
The site is run on IIS 6/Jakarta Tomcat with mySQL database and Java 1.4. We wrote all servlet/JSP code and set up the database and the webserver.
