You are invited to participate in an online needs assessment survey that solicits input on how you are or would like to be using maps and mapping applications in personal rather than professional contexts. We are particularly interested in understanding the extent to which you are using maps to monitor and/or improve personal health and well-being and how the design of those maps could be improved to better meet your needs. This research is being conducted by Dr. Jonathan Nelson and PhD student Susannah Cox from UW-Madison’s Geography Department.
Participation in this study entails the completion of an online survey (estimated to take no longer than 15 minutes to complete).
To be eligible, you must be 18 years of age or older, speak fluent English, and use maps or mapping applications as part of your personal routine(s).
