We've been tasked with doing some research and development and during my development process I designed a survey which I sent out to be class mates, which received the following feedback to help the developement of the type of application which I will be designing.

These surveys were taken from my classmates, but I thought I should do a little bit of research outside of college, so I sent the survey out to 5 others unrelated to PCA and only know that I'm creating an app. these were the results.

Here are my tally's for the type of designs and methods.
Type of Guide
Reviews - 2/13
Both - 5/13
Step by step video/Images - 5/13
Would they Investment
No - 5/13
Yes/maybe - 8/13
then I believe the information on beneficial mapping, was equal in Yes and No answers.
It is then that from the above information that more people would invest in a application that's capable of guiding people thoroughly through a city, and that equal numbers would prefer both or either Video/Images guides rather than just reviews.
From this my application more than likely will consist of video/image guiding through the city and to popular places to see and go.
