Diseño de interfaz gráfica de una aplicación móvil turística del Centro Histórico de Cuenca

Abstract

This project focuses on the design of the graphic interface of a mobile application that provides updated information on the main tourist attractions of the Historic Center of Cuenca. The application was created to promote tourism and facilitate access to information for national and international tourists between 25 and 35 years old, and therefore improve the experience of tourists. Jesse James Garrett's methodology, organized into five planes—Strategy, Scope, Structure, Skeleton, and Surface—guided the development of the project. In the first phase, information was collected on user requirements and preferences, which allowed defining the user needs and objectives of the application. After this, content requirements and functional specifications were established, which allowed the information architecture and low-fidelity wireframes to be evaluated by the users. Finally, the style guide was defined, which was applied to all screens, and the application was prototyped. The final product is an interactive prototype that simulates the operation of inCuenca.
