State your hypothesis, tying your project back to the impact it might have.
If we have a map of our broadcast towers along with frequency it would make it easier for people to figure out how to tune in. This is a self-interested idea: When I leave Portland on a road trip, I try to stay tuned to OPB. Sometimes I have to guess at which of the many frequencies we broadcast along is the right place to tune in, and sometimes I give up and wind up listening to (gasp!) music, because I can't quickly figure it out. |

Which metrics would you use to track the success of this project? We will use this as the foundation of our experiment design. (Optional)
We could compare metrics for the current page we have that lists frequencies against metrics for the new page to see if people spend more time looking at the map, or if it gets more traffic. |

What problem are we trying to solve for our communities with this experiment? How might it help us better serve them?
Help people find what station to tune into using a map instead of just this list of broadcast locations https://opb2.my.site.com/Help/s/article/How-to-listen-opb-kmhd |

Lay out the potential project steps to the best of your ability, including key teams that would need to be consulted. This is your best knowledge of the systems, tools and lift that would be required.
Make a map showing broadcast locations, frequency and perhaps also signal strength, using one of several tools available to us. We could do this with Datamapper or with Google Maps, among others. Then decide where to display it (it could sit on the existing text page where this info is shared) and embed it there. |
