The 'Place Standard Questionnaire' is one of three interactives that I developed for a touring exhibition used by the Scottish Government and the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA).

​

'Place Standard' is a tool used by the Scottish Government that provides a simple framework to structure conversations about places, including physical and social aspects such as public transport, safety, local economy and recreation.

​

The touch screen questionnaire provides a simple, engaging and seamless interface for members of the public to answer 14 questions about a specific place (the example screenshots are for Glasgow). Users are first asked to provide some basic, anonymous information about themselves, such as age group and method of transport they use most often. Users then respond to each question with a star rating from one to seven, or select 'I don't know'. When all 14 questions have been rated, an overview of the results are shown as a compass diagram. Users can compare their ratings to the average ratings from all other users.

​

All results are stored and can be easily accessed by the client, and transferred to a spreadsheet for further analysis. As the exhibition moves from place to place, the client can configure the software to change the place name that is displayed (Glasgow in the example screenshots). The client can also enable or disable the 'A Bit About You' screens that appear before the questions, as these are not required in every location.

​

This software was developed for Unusual Projects; they designed and built the exhibition stand for their client, Glasgow Science Centre.
