DESCRIPTION

The National Climate Assessment summarizes the impacts of climate change on the United States, now and in the future. A team of more than 300 experts guided by a 60-member Federal Advisory Committee produced the report, which was extensively reviewed by the public and experts, including federal agencies and a panel of the National Academy of Sciences. The objective of this project was to present the scientific data of the report in a way that was accessible to the public and function within a social media environment. Every piece of content needed to be shareable and functional across all devices. Come see how I structured a Drupal site to implement the design concept and vision provided by HabitatSeven.

Requirements

Page 12: Drupal Camp Asheville 2014: Assessing the 2014 National Climate Assessment Website

Requirements

1. The entire 1400 page report and background data needed to be visualized.

2. All elements of the site (graphics, text, photos) needed to be shareable as separate items.

3. The entire system needed to be responsive and accessible across browsers and devices.

4. The design needed to cater to both the general public and scientists.

Goals

Page 14: Drupal Camp Asheville 2014: Assessing the 2014 National Climate Assessment Website

Goals

1. Innovative Design Strategy: Based on several storytelling principles, “Snowfall” design, a first for a large-scale government science report.

2. Mobile First: The site was designed to be completely responsive to function across all devices, including smart phones, tablets, and computers.

3. Social Media Integration: Every piece of content in the report has its own URL, Facebook and Twitter handle so that information can be extracted and shared on social media, email or list-serves.

Outcomes

“The result is a lot more engaging than a PDF file or a stack of papers. Yes, it's still a lot of content to digest, but if the government (or, really, any organization) wants people to actually read the reports it puts out, this could be a good way to prevent people from having their eyes instantly glaze over.”
