The phone/email buttons are unnecessary and should be easy to parse based on the content of the form.

• place "coming soon" banner over email + disable that button
• text icon should be white on hover
• phone number input field should appear only after user hits text button

• Topic title
• Topic description
• Estimated frequency
• Time between receiving notification and event
• Example event notification
• Who it's published by
• Icon

To test:
Do users know to click on them?

with City logo + CfA logo

Make it more official.

Need to:

• connect with Marci

People have no idea how/that they need to draw on the map.

Possible suggested solutions:

• Dropdown of neighborhoods/zipcodes/etc
• Outline of neighborhoods/zipcodes/etc that people can click to add to selection
• Zoom to address and let them adjust an existing polygon left in edit mode
• Be more explicit that they need to draw/show a how to video

Also see #15.

Description under email field: "You will get email notifications _______"

• Default: as they come in
• Checkbox: once per day
• Checkbox: once per week

Tiffany to translate user research into action items after next week

Think about "draw" area especially.

• Traffic incidents (http://cmpd-feed-etl.herokuapp.com/geojson)
• Land Development (Commercial)
• Rezonings
• Street Closures (BLE)
• Historic Districts Data?

The start button isn't really necessary or all that useful right now. Maybe get rid of it if we are keeping this as a single page app.

• "want to see more detail about the police incidents! some of the categories are vague and hard to understand. any way to link back to a police report or something with more context?" -Reed
• "i'd like an aggregate view of crime (to help Molly know where to avoid). Patterns are more important, i.e. if there are one-time incidents vs. a bunch of break-ins." -Molly
• Molly says some of the types of 911 Police Incidents that she's gotten texts about are not exactly relevant to her ("forgery-bad checks", "harassment, threats - by telephone, writing"). If it was, say, home invasion, assaults on the street, etc. might be more relevant.

Possible tabs:

Select existing polygon on a map

• Zip codes
• Census tract/block
• NPAs

Select shape user has previously drawn

Radius from location

Sections are too far apart to do the mad-libs copy style.
Revise copy to be more clear.

• Enter address

"It might be better to collect this info through DMV, survey at City tax registration, or put a platform on City website, or use public library system."
-attendee from BETA

Add another feed as the first or last item requesting what other feeds people would like to see. Could look like existing block titled "Other Feeds" with a "?" for an icon. When clicked, it will take you to a form to collect the following info:

• City
• Details
• Existing data feed?

TIME PERMITTING:
add address field so user can input address and the map can zoom to that specific point.
See #12.

To find out:

• Do users want to select the same addresses and radii for multiple topics? or new ones?
• Do users want to select multiple areas per topic?

Show:

• Which topics people have already subscribed to. maybe via checkmark, greyed out, "pushed in", etc.

Figure out the UX of how people can dive into a topic to better understand what it is and decide if they want to subscribe. Include:

• explanation of topic (one sentence about content covered)
• an example of message / notification
• frequency (i.e. number of messages / day or week) -- possibly out of scope

TIME PERMITTING:
minimal error-handling - reset page on error

Topic description + sample notification on right hand side of topics.
Tiffany to mockup.

Offer to allow more subscriptions (call to action?)

Ex: "You're subscribed to traffic accidents! Would you like to sign up for another topic?"

Front-end mark up for radius options.
Tiffany to confirm exact options.

After address input, before moving on from map section.
Tiffany to mockup.

• Adding feeds (to initiate a topic)
• Feed builder (manual input)
• Stats on feeds/subscribers?

• omit non-Charlotte topics
• delete city subtitle from each panel
• add historic districts cases
• take out "coming soon" banners on appropriate panels

As such:

I'd love to be able to voyeuristicly check out your app as you develop it :)
