User Experience – Taxonomy & Metadata Design
While an understanding of business needs and user motivations helps ensure targeted requirements and usable design, your application's underlying data superstructure is critical both to its functional usability and its delivery of robust and intuitive functionality. In creating a taxonomy or hierarchical structure for classifying data, we first develop a detailed analysis of your users, your content and environmental factors to deliver a usable and contextually accurate solution. Simply put, we organize your data the way it will actually be used.
At the same time, we create a metadata framework that helps us further classify your content to deliver an overall data architecture that will allow you to leverage the disparate perspectives and considerations users bring to your application.
As part of our project methodology, Roundarch's user experience experts leverage:
- Business analysis
- Data mining and content analysis
- User interviewing techniques
