From the evaluation report, we’ve found out the common feedback that the audience want to see 1) why AQI is high or low on certain days and 2) what exactly AQI is impacting in their lives. It seems that inContinue reading… Part 3: Connecting AQI Data to Real World
Design Evaluation on AQI charts
With the daily AQI rosa chart and monthly AQI trend chart, Jaeri Suh, an MS-HCI student, conducted the initial design evaluation over two weeks. She recruited three participants from diverse age groups with limited knowledge of air quality and dataContinue reading… Design Evaluation on AQI charts
Part 2. AQI Rosa Chart Data Visualization
From the trip to Civil and Human Rights museum, we’ve learned that 1) people don’t spend more than average 1 min to play with kiosk thus concise and essential information is crucial to maintaining engagement. 2) big color contrast attractContinue reading… Part 2. AQI Rosa Chart Data Visualization
Part 1. Data visualization chart progress
Based on preliminary ContAQT design, the TILES AQI Research team decided to redesign the AQI data visualization. Before commencing the redesign, our team aimed to redefine what we wanted to portray through our data visualization chart. Yixuan Li and JaeriContinue reading… Part 1. Data visualization chart progress
Kiosk Medium Research
What would be the optimal medium to present air quality data visualization in public? In previous research, it was suggested that a table-top kiosk with multiple touch-points could encourage audience engagement and conversation. Keeping this project vision in mind, ourContinue reading… Kiosk Medium Research
Trip to Civil and Human Rights Museum
On October 20th, 2023, our research team members, Yixuan Li (HCC PhD) and Jaeri Suh (MS-HCI), undertook an observational research trip to the Civil and Human Rights Museum in Atlanta. Our objective was to examine the mediums used by theContinue reading… Trip to Civil and Human Rights Museum
Air Quality Data API Connection
Our research team’s initial goal was to identify a suitable Air Quality Data API to fulfill our project’s learning objectives. We aimed to engage audiences through live Air Quality data visualizations on public kiosk screens, featuring six key pollutants affectingContinue reading… Air Quality Data API Connection
ContAQT Platform Preliminary Research
Our AQI Data Literacy project was built upon the preliminary study titled “Designing a Platform for Public Exploration of Multi-Pollutant Air Quality Data,” conducted by previous researchers from the TILES lab. The study highlighted the challenges in interpreting air qualityContinue reading… ContAQT Platform Preliminary Research
