About Way Down South Software
Formerly known in New Zealand as 'NutriComp'. I changed the name when I started distributing software in the United States, since I found there was an existing company in the U.S.A. called Nutri-Comp.
Way Down South Software's involvement in diet analysis software development...
In 1988 I completed a Bachelor of Science in Human Nutrition at University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand. In 1994 I completed a Master of Science in Community Nutrition at University of Otago. My Master's research investigated 'The Design, Analysis and Evaluation of a Food Frequency Questionnaire for Assessing the Nutrient Intake of New Zealand Adults'.
I have been developing diet analysis software since 1989. A large number of my early programs were for analysing 'Food Frequency Questionnaires'. I developed food frequency questionnaire analysis software for the 'Hillary Commission for Recreation and Sport: Life in New Zealand Survey' conducted by the Faculty of Physical Education, University of Otago. Several other programs were custom written for various research projects in the Department of Human Nutrition, University of Otago.
