Detailed Description

This project is an attempt to address (learn the process involved in) the designer’s challenge to make information accessible and available to users within the campus. This project attempts to create an interactive information system that would make it easy to access the information the user needs from the complex set of information in IIT Bombay. The interactive system seeks to reduce the cognitive load on the user and minimise the learning time otherwise normally spent to access such a system. The system is proposed to be accessed by users within the campus. Interactive systems tend to aid the user in navigating and zooming into specific areas. The report structure comprises the requirement study, where the user needs were identified, followed by the data collection and the conclusion of the analysis. The interface design and navigation aim to provide the user with an effective interface so he/she could access information more easily. The proposed system is a simulated model and demonstrates its effectiveness. The working model can be fulfilled after all data has been fed into the system.
