level Not linked to finding
accommodation
Important factors:
Affordability - Price Safety - crime rate Distance to work place/school - Proximity to
X
Prototype 1
1.1 Price and Distance Visual Queries1. Which apartments are within a
2km radius from place x?2. Which of the apartments is the
cheapest?3. Where is place x on the map?
Prototype 1
1.2 Bar graph Visual Queries1. Which apartments are within a
2km radius from place x?2. Which of the apartments is the
cheapest?3. Where is place x on the map?
Prototype 1
1.3 Safety Visual Queries Which apartments are within a
2km radius from place x? How safe is the area where
I will be living? Where is place x on the map?
Prototype 2
1.1 Dart Board Visual Queries1. Which apartments are within a
2km radius from place x?2. Which of the apartments is the
cheapest?3. How safe is the area where I
will be living?
Prototype 2
1.2 Colour Visual Queries1. Which apartments are within a
2km radius from place x?2. Which of the apartments is the
cheapest?3. How safe is the area where I
will be living?
Prototype 1 Analysis• Map to show relative
positions• Bar graph to easily
compare price ‘heights’• Colour over textures for
crime rate of whole areas(avoid clash with map ‘texture’)
Prototype 2 Analysis
• Using colours green, yellow, red for increasing crime rates
• Distance represented by radius x km• Occlusion, 2.d, colour intensities for ‘closeness’
