Information Design

Adam Greene edited this page Dec 10, 2021 · 4 revisions

target audience is the public; and it should be informational about what their dept. is up to, and upcoming information. Static info about the dept, such as about us, mission, etc. is secondary to getting info out

Focus:

  • getting it published asap!
  • news/advisories
  • can punt on community and a lot of the about for now

#v1

Two collections:

  • Posts
    • Advisories
      • burn bans/permits/info
      • weather/storm/marine
      • cooling/heating centers
    • Announcement (upcoming trainings, votes, notable events?)
    • Dept. Highlights (perhaps video blogs?)
    • Fact Check
    • General News
    • Member Profile (use to link from the about/members section)
    • Response Moment
  • Meetings

Behavior: show the most recent 2 advisories, and most recent 4 news item summaries.

questions:

  • do posts need Iconography?

Singletons

  • About
    • mission
    • district
  • Governance
    • commissioners about us
    • Commissioner meetings (upcoming and past); link to audio, summary, all documents shared
    • information about submitting public records request
  • Community or Services
    • emergency services provided: structure, wildland, marine, BLS, Search & Rescue, Rope Rescue, Vehicle Extrication, Basic Hazmat
    • Community (non-emergency) Services: firewise, community risk reduction, inspections
    • Upcoming classes/trainings. (this can be more informational and not really a collection; only 2-3 public classes a year right now)
    • relationships: coast guard, DNR, others...?
  • contact
  • Disclaimer like: https://www.sanjuanco.com/125/Disclaimer
  • no terms/privacy needed

v1+

get everything we missed in v1 that launched, like a services page.

V2

  • add a stats section on the front page: this could be more 'widget' type and see if we can API/scrap this... lets discuss if we want historical info as a collection
  • Perhaps balance that widget with a current burn status, link to permit, and Fire Danger status... lets NOT just automatically link to the Fire Marshal's website!!
  • fill in content; modify and expand as needed
    • add members section
    • flush out community
  • expand the type of news items
