Default SSA project - Automation of badge applications

Has anyone with the SSA proposed the notion of developing some
software that would automate the entire badge review process??

No question that within this sport are numerous talented software
folks who could jointly develop some code for this.

We're at the point where basically everyone should have some sort of
GPS log from their flight with their badge application. Even the few
exceptions (5 hours under constant surveillance) could be handled this
way.

Pilot would first go online and submit the flight log and necessary
details of the flight.

OO would then follow and electronically sign the application

Software similar to SeeYou would verify that the flight performance
met the requirements and then send a summary to the SSA "badge person"
who could then take a quick peak and approve the badge(s). The
software could print certificates and even extract the necessary data
for the SSA magazine.

Potentially confirmation of a badge flight could occur within 24 hours
of submission.

Just a thought...
