Planned project design



I'm going to create a computer application that allows users to input data of their homes, businesses, schools or universities energy usage.  It will show you what you're overusing, where you need to be more efficient, whether your usage is increasing or decreasing over time and will allow users to build their houses floor plan so that they can track their usage.  The data will be compared to other users, so they can compete against other houses, neighbourhoods, businesses and schools to try and be the most efficient.  Each month the charts will be reviewed and the winners and users that lower their average will be awarded with points.  These points will add up until you can buy items from contributing businesses. 

The user group that this is designed for is teenagers to adults.  The aesthetics of the application will be basic and modern, so that it is easy to navigate and will suit the preferences of the user group.   The puzzle pieces used for buttons and to show data etc, signifies how we're all working together to create a greener, healthier planet.
