The Understanding Group

The Understanding Group is an information architecture consulting firm where I interned in the fall of 2016. I was assigned to create models of the existing ecosystem for a client of their's. I had to sign a non-disclosure agreement for this project, thus I can not say who the client was. I was assigned to make models of the whole system as a nesting of domains, interactions people have with the system, within and across domains, and a model to encompass the entities in the system, and the relationships with each other. These initial models help establish the current state of an information system and act as a map as to how to proceed forward in creating a more effective system. As the project is under a non-disclosure agreement , all models presented below have been modified to not reveal the content of the project, but still represent the type of work that I completed during my internship. 

Mapping of Categories

This model is an example of the entities that exist within the system. 

Entities Within The System

This model is an example of Entities that exist within a system (nested domains). 

Interactions Users Have With the System
