Short description

The dynamic Homfinder was created to search and visualize Databases. As the name implies, the first use case scenario was a home finding application, where the user was able to find real estates, by adjusting graphical widgets (sliders, ...).

Advantages using dynamic Homfinder

  • Continuous update of the query results
  • Fully visual interface (no query language needed)
  • Reversible operations
  • Immediate results
  • almost no training needed

Disadvantages using dynamic Homefinder

  • complex dynamic Queries need a lot of screen real estate
  • underlying data structures need to support rapid querying

Suitable Datatypes

  • data should be graphical representable
  • slider widgets rely on numerical data

Interaction

  • multiple slider interface
  • buttons
  • dynamic map display that displays house location
  • single view
