Abstract Details

This thesis focuses on a user study of a location-based common operational picture (COP) tool titled PIVOT. PIVOT is a web-based program that helps users process and geospatially simulates social media data besides other media sources. This tool aims to enable local decision-makers to enhance their situational awareness of an emerging issue in their area by allowing social media search by location rather than topic alone. Furthermore, this tool enables users to concentrate their study of data sources on smaller, more focused regional areas, potentially allowing them a more linear view of local populations and potentially offering more usable insights. This paper conducts a usability test on PIVOT (shown in figure 1.1) by recruiting participants to engage in a think-aloud activity. The participants perform a few tasks using the tool to check how they can navigate through the tool and check if they can find the required information using available features. Results will be to inform design rationale for similar devices
