DOKODARE usage scenarios

We use navigational flow diagrams and user stories.

Navigational flow sequence 'presence code':

1. Scan presence code => I'm visible and I'm at place X
2. Get info about POI => see Navigational flow sequence 'Info about POI'
3. Get info about friends nearby / communities => see Navigational flow sequence 'Info about friends nearby'

Navigational flow sequence 'place code':

1. Scan place code => Where am I? What's nearby? => see Navigational flow sequence 'Info about POI'

Navigational flow sequence 'Info about POI':

1. POI Screen
   1. Info (text) about current POI
   2. Map
   3. Related keywords
   4. Search what? (keyword search engine?)
2. Map Screen => Show Map with POIs a,b,c,... (similar - but better - than [1])
3. Result List: Show result list of 'related keywords' or 'Search what?'

Navigational flow sequence 'Info about friends nearby':

1. Map Screen => Show Map with friends nearby

POI Proposal 2

Folksonomy approach blended with supervision ('poi admins' and 'system tags'). Users can add multiple categories/keywords (don't confuse barcode tags with keyword tags). POI admins ensure that every POI get's at least one system category/keyword.

See also:

• OpenStretMap
• Free Map Prototype or Geonames (w/POI edit and history).
• Top five main categories from [2] (german): 1. Essen, Trinken und Übernachten; 2. Freizeit und Kultur; 3. Shopping; 4. Verkehr; 5. Öffentliche Gebäude

'System keywords':

• 5 to 7 main system keywords...
• Additional important keywords
  • wheelchair => for wheelchair friendly POIs e.g. restaurant/bar, park lot, public toilet.
  • nice => nice foot path/route
• ...

Open questions regarding keywords, categories, tags:

• Englisch and/or native? => allow native words but maintain 'system keywords'.
• Umlauts? => allow umlauts
• Keyword separator? => take comma as separator in order to allow multiple words
• Singular/Plural? => prefer plural
