In the fall of 2018, I was a part of a sponsored collaboration between SCAD and GE Transportation for a SCADPro project concerning data visualization. The class consisted of 13 designers across 6 different majors, and two professors (Professor Joe DiGioia and Professor Josephine Leong). Of these 13, I was the only User Experience designer.
​
Prompt
Given the fact that GE Transportation has 10+ years worth of GPS data recorded by their locomotives, how do you visualize massive amounts of data in a way that is meaningful and allows their internal team to gain new insights?
​
Outcome
At the end of the 10 week class, my team and I presented 9 prototypes of varying ideas and functionalities to GE Transportation representatives. Each prototype was unique and allowed the GE Transportation team to gain unique and helpful insights.
​
My Role
My personal impact on this project included the design, implementation, and presentation of one of the 9 final prototypes while receiving input from the rest of the team. I also worked on research (primary interviews and secondary methods), stakeholder mapping, graphics, and icon and illustration design.
