We constructed an ipad application for botanical data retrieval applying our proposed search interface ‘Concentric Ring View’ for multi-faceted metadata. This system allows users to search flexibly and intuitively by combining attributes of a plant with simple operation. The attributes used as search keys are visual and botanical features such as flower color, leaf shape, blooming season, place found, and so on. We performed a usability test for 30 teachers working in elementary schools and junior high schools. We confirmed that teachers expected to use this application in their class because this application enables users not only to search for plant names but also to learn morphological features and taxonomy of plants. In addition, this application has the possibility to maintain searching motivation through easy operation. |
