Developing Interactive Web Elements for Texas Open Data Portal

Abstract

Texas Open Data Portal (ODP) is an online platform that supports agencies and organizations to publish data to engage citizens, improve operations, and foster transparency. My project is to design and develop interactive web elements that could help engage the audience and better target information for constituents. I conducted user research with the Texas Open Data Portal customers, which are the agencies and organizations that publish data on the Texas Open Data Portal. Based on the user research, I selected six types of web interaction that would be ideal for the Texas Open Data Portal, and created nine corresponding interactive web elements. In addition, I made a demo page and a tutorial to help the Texas Open Data Portal customers with the interactive web elements.
