Project description

So-called “neogeography maps” on the Internet are often not created by cartographers and were never never evaluated by the actual end users. Consequently, besides accuracy, their usability is also questionable. The aim of this project is to evaluate the usability issues by the end users at a detailed level. Based on this, improved products and recommendations will be defined.
