User interface design principles provides users with an interface they can interact with that is both attractive and pleasant. In crowdsourcing projects, the user interface is a tool to collect data and its final design should align itself with the organizations’ objectives.
User interface design aspects were pivotal to the success of the “My Favourite Place” web application, and several user interface design aspects were implemented into twelve experimental websites for users to test on in Survey One. Also, the user design process required good map design for the collection of VGI data, and it was necessary to include one task description in the web interface for crowdsourcing activities.
In the next upcoming articles, we will discuss four user interface design elements that helped build the web application used in this study, though in total, we had implemented ten design aspects into the final build.
