Designing a Citizen Science Platform for Venice

Público

In this project, we collaborated in a multidisciplinary group to design a citizen science platform. During this remote experience we adapted to new tools and shifts in project requirements. Individually, we practiced an online professional presence and worked independently on delegated tasks. We consulted with international sponsors and advisors to improve the quality and effectiveness of our project. We designed the platform in an iterative process: creating user profiles, analyzing existing platforms to adapt and adopt their features, and testing our design with multiple users. Our collaborative and driven mindset enabled us to successfully design a platform that will support citizen science projects by promoting their cause and visualizing the collected data.
