Hi everyone,

Over the past week, the mapping design team has put together a number
of scenarios relating to the use of maps in museums. In particular,
we're covering the use of maps from the perspective of adult visitors,
education users (e.g., classrooms of students), and exhibition
designers.

These are still in a rough first iteration draft, and we intend to use
them both as an artifact for communicating direction and functionality
with our museum friends, as well as a basis for pulling out wireframes
and the sort. The scenarios will undoubtedly go through multiple
iterations until they've matured from the input and feedback of our
partners and advisors, and we also foresee some fresh new scenarios
being developed in parallel with our future activities.

Said scenarios can be found here:

(some of the designers are still populating the page with their
material, so standby for more updates)
