Create useful and usable map apps that your users will love. Turn
your next map app project into a success with Designing Map
Interfaces: Patterns for Building Effective Map Apps. Whether
you're configuring an out-of-the-box solution, building an app
using one of the readily available app builder tools, or working on
a custom app project, this book will guide you toward developing
more useful and usable apps. Current courses for application
development focus on technology and architecture rather than the
tenets of interface design. This book teaches GIS professionals,
developers, and designers the principles and best practices that
will help them create stunning consumer-grade apps. Designing Map
Interfaces provides a language for planning and building map apps.
The elements of this language are made up of user interface (UI)
patterns. Each pattern describes a solution to an observed and
recurring problem in UI design. This book explains when to use the
pattern, why it is important, and what to consider--and in turn
will help readers make educated decisions on what, why, when, and
how to solve problems to make their apps work. Throughout the book,
patterns are illustrated through real-world examples. Key topics
include: getting started with design, selecting the right layout,
interacting with the map, dealing with complex data, designing for
mobile devices, building single-purpose apps, and common mistakes
and how to avoid them. This book is aimed at anyone that configures
(solution engineers, GIS professionals) or builds (developer
community, designers) map apps, especially the fast-growing group
of users who employ application builders and tools that create apps
to publish their own data and maps on the web. Designing Map
Interfaces fills the gap that documentation lacks--practical tips
on how to assemble a meaningful UI. This book is the essential
guide to designing map interfaces that are usable and efficient,
and look good in the process.
