Prototyping a Web Site for Exploratory Browsing of Local Foods with Structuring Local Food Information

Abstract

We have developed MochiMap, a web map of local foods to help people understand their local foods. In this paper, we designed and prototyped a website for exploratorily browsing of local foods because the exploratory browsing is suitable for non-experts of local foods. Concretely, we use the faceted navigation mechanism to make it easier for first-time users to understand. We also described the properties defined in Wikidata that are needed for each facet. As a future work, we will conduct an evaluation experiment for verifying our proposed system.
