Introduction
This post is an overview of our task of proposing an improved navigational system for City Tech, and the steps we have taken to do so. This includes all of the documents, visual aids, and deliverables that were used. All documents referenced here can be downloaded from a direct link at the end of this post.
Pitch
The purpose of the Pitch was to bring awareness to the need of a form of technical communications that could be beneficial to City Tech and its members. There were several possible needs to address, and we have felt that using a distributable map as a better navigational system has the greatest ratio of benefits/effectiveness to cost. In this Pitch, we prepare a presentation to give a basic overview of the necessity of a map.

Proposal
Following our Pitch, we needed to gather more details in order to propose the precise requirements of implementing a map for a navigational system. This included reviewing the overall benefits of using a map, gauging the need for a map by its intended users (the students and visitors of City Tech), and the projected costs of implementing it. This proposal includes a formal report that addresses all of this, plus a survey that we have used to gather necessary data.
City Tech Survey #1 (Demand)

Deliverable
With the proposal set, it was time to create the deliverable map to be used for technical communications. A prototype map of a sample floor was created, tested using feedback from another survey, and then re-purposed into a final form.

City Tech Survey #2 (Testing)

Presentation
With all components of the deliverable completed, the Presentation and Script is a review of all of the work done so far, confirming all of the work done throughout this project. This also presents validation for the City Tech administration, should they consider officially implementing the deliverable. Progress reports and meeting minute logs are also provided in this post, showing all of the steps that have been done to complete this project.
