AUTOBIOGRAPHY
My name is Kwanta Chetthasombat. I am 26 year-old. I was born in
Thailand. I got a bachelor degree in Information and Communication
Engineering at Chulalongkorn University. When I was studying in the
second year, I started to be interested in design, so I took many
design-related classes both inside and outside of the university. I took
Certificate Course in Interior and Product Design at Chanapatana
International Institute of Design which is a branch school from Florence,
Italy. I also took Computer Graphic and UI Design for my elective classes
in my fourth year.
My senior project was iPhone application that can track restaurants
queue in a mall. It can also give users a shortest path from where they are
at to the restaurant. This is very challenging because it is an indoor way
finding application.
After I graduated, I did internship as a web developer for three months
and another one as a web designer for a month. This is where I want to
take designing skill seriously.
My goal is to become an amazing teacher. I also want to open up my own
application development company as if to keep me update to technology.
I love the scence of be able to solve those coding problem. It really is
challenging.

THESIS ABSTRACT

THESIS ABSTRACT
Wandervation is a way finding mobile first responsive web application. It
gives an alternative way to commute due to the steepness of the route.
For bicyclists, it allows users to select hill and road type option for the
smoothness and safety. It will generate multiple results for users to select.
On the map, the route will highlight in color indicators which represent
the steepness of each road along the path. Lastly, users can save there
favorite results for the future use.

THE PROBLEMS
The hill, landscape of the city, as everyone knows San Francisco is
famous for its hills. According to "Hills of San Francisco," published
in 1959 by Chronicle Publishing, there are more than 50 hills within
city limits. Some neighborhoods are named after the hill on which
they are situated. Near the geographic center of the city, southwest
of the downtown area, are a series of less densely populated hills. It
is really hard to go from place to place in San Francisco without
facing one of those hills. They may have a smoother way to go.
Page 10
THE SOLUTIONS
Provide a way fiding tool for users to find a less steep route.
Users can choose how steep they want to go. The route must
show the steepness of the route.
“There's a hill up into the Haight... It's not that far
away, but I don't go there and I think of it as distant,
even though it's not.”

STATEMENT OF INTEREST
Page 12
STATEMENT OF INTEREST
San Francisco is famous for its hills. According to “Hills of San
Francisco,” published in 1959 by Chronicle Publishing, there are
more than 50 hills within city limits. Some neighborhoods are
named after the hill on which they are situated, including Nob Hill,
Potrero Hill, and Russian Hill. Near the geographic center of the city,
southwest of the downtown area, are a series of less densely
populated hills.
Going from place to place in San Francisco by only looking at the
map cannot tell which way is more steep than the others. Some
people prefer to go for longer distance but less steep.
I would like to create a mobile first responsive web application as a
way finding tool for people who prefer less steep route than the
shortest one. This web application will enable bicyclist users to
select the hill options (avoid all hills, reasonable hills, and take me up
the hills) and type of route(mostly bike lanes, some bike lanes, and
most direct route). This will give multiple results to choose. Results
for bicyclist is in 2 miles different from the shortest one. Results for
pedestrian is in 1 mile different from the shortest one. Users can
also see the steepness of the route along the path highlight in colors
indicator which represent different grade of the hill scales from 0-10
%(http://www.roberts-1.com/bikehudson/r/m/hilliness/index.htm#gr
ade). For this thesis project I will simplify those down to 3 to 5
colors indicator. Lastly, users can save favorite route to personal
favorite page for the future use.

Google Bike Map
I love the interaction of an application.
Page 15
Amarpai
This is an open source bike planner responsive
website. It is well functional. It combines all
open source map provider to a better one.
Nike Run
This influences me on how the highlight
running path in different color indicates the
speed of the runner.
THESIS PROJECT PROPOSAL
Page 16
THESIS PROJECT PROPOSAL
Wandervation is a way finding tool that helps ease bicyclists
and pedestrians life by generating a route due to the steepness
of the road and bike friendly path. What challenge me about
this project is combining multiple open source provider to
make a better way finding especially for bike. This application
will be a mobile first responsive web application because from
my survey almost everyone prefer to use smartphone as their
first computer. Also, this application is a way finding application
so the major use will be anywhere anytime instantaneously.
Smartphones have so many operation system and screen size
so it would be nice to make it responsive.

Google API
This will be a mobile first responsive web application. It is
mobile first because from the survey nowadays people trend
to use mobile as a primary computer. Mobile has many
operating systems and screen sizes so this is the reason why it
need to be responsive. This application can be divided into four
parts.
Amarpi + Bikesy
First, responsive user interface, I will built this using html, css,
and jQuery.
Second, Google map, I will use Google map API to get the
actual map. I will also get latitude and longitude of starting and
ending point. This part will also include the path highlight in
different color depend on the steepness of the route.
mySQL
php
HTML+CSS+JS+JQuery
Third, find a path due to elevation and bike path, I will use
Google Eeevetion API to get the elevation of each road and I
will write some function using php and javaScript to create
route that match with user’s requirement. I will also use open
source provider Amarpai to find a bike path route.
Lastly, user account to save favorites route, I will use php and
mySQL to connect with the database.

Wandervation comes from Wander and Elevation. So I design
to have slope as W shape and the circle represents wander way.
The reson why I use red color is because this is a way finding

Last quarter of the semester, I will be

After improving from what I get from
UX Testing 1. I will take visual design
class which I will improving my viuasl
design.
After improving from what I get from
UX Testing 1.5. I will be developing
the final prototype.
I will do the responsive web prototype
testing with 5 bicyclists and 3
pedestrians focusing on mobile. I will
give them 3 senarios about the
function of the app to test on. This
process will be recorded by using
Silverback. At the end I will ask some
questions about how do they feel
about this app, which is the most
difficul part to go through, what they
like about this app., and what do they
think it needs to be change in what
way?
Page 63
Last quarter of the semester, I will have
the improved version of my app. and
better visual design.
I will do the responsive web prototype
testing focusing on mobile and desktop
as the same process as UX Testing 1.
At the begining of the semester, I will do
the last UX Testing.
I will do the responsive web prototype
focusing on mobile, destop, and tablet.
After the last UX Testing, I will
improve the app. from what I get from
UX Testing 2. The application will be
ready to launch.
