Abstract
A User-Centered Approach to Online Campus Mapping
Track: Administration and Policy
Authors: Peter Halls
University campus mapping must support the needs of a wide variety of users and purposes at a range of levels of detail. Recognising that their traditional approach was failing to meet the needs of campus users, the University of York initiated a project to deliver a solution that would serve the traditional needs, deliver to the needs of specific groups of campus users and support modern technology. This presentation will briefly discuss the results of the user needs analysis and explore the ongoing stage of the project to deliver to these needs, using ArcGIS, ArcGIS Server and the exploration of mobile delivery. The data and presentation challenges posed by some of the requirements will be discussed, together with some of our proposed solutions by seeking to link to external sources of information.
