Monday I teamed up with my classmate Steph to work on our second micro project of the semester. For this project, we picked from a selection of icons & created a simple webpage around it. Steph & I picked this mountain/outdoors-y icon & decided to create a webpage for a hiking app.
Our app would bring together the essentials for a day of hiking: a GPS-enabled trail map, an interactive compass, & current & future weather conditions.
Initial website concept sketches, along with sketches for 3 apps
Due to time constraints we decided to make the homepage focused on only one aspect of the app. After deciding the map would be the sort-of main aspect of the app, with the compass & weather forecasts as secondary features. For the prototype app (& phone) featured on the webpage, I chose to use Golden Eagle trail in northern Pennsylvania.

Proposed icons for compass, map (main), & weather conditions, but in this case used to illustrated what was included in app.
