After our interim presentation we realised that we may have got a bit off track with our idea, and it was recommended that we go back on our first concept that we had in the first week of an app that tracks your location throughout a tramp through near field communication 'tag on' points. We will continue to prototype and mind map this idea until we are happy with it.

Discussion with Klaus

After discussing with Klaus about our app, we realised we needed to focus our target audience to one group, and to one feature - done well. Klaus gave us an indication towards a possible target audience, professional hikers/trampers that climb competitively. We looked at how we could track their progress and their 'peaks' climbed while still being usable in an emergency.

Target Market

The target audience that the Sherpa app is focused towards is New Zealand trampers/walkers in small groups of 1-3 people, with a beginner to medium ability. Also, the users of this app would most likely be doing a day or at the most overnight tramp/walk on popular routes. It looks at providing these users with enough information to first avoid most common emergencies, but in the event of one to survive it as well. Also, it aids by assisting a user in the background in the event that they are incapacitated or have a flat phone battery.
