| Abstract | We have developed the Artifact Map as a tool for context analysis. In a first step, this tool supports and structures the early process of, "hunting for stories" by collecting, describing and mapping all artifacts on a floor map as an anchor. Subsequently, this visible, tangible surrogate paper context is collaboratively extended and used in interviews. Doing so, users are aided in making tacit knowledge explicit, analyzing and reflecting creatively about all aspects of their workaday world. Preparing and working with the Artifact map helps to immerse quickly in a complex context, to find interesting research and design questions, and to establish a common language. Collaborative, social and work processes are jointly sketched on the map, later visually informing further design. Preparing and working with the Artifact Map is both a structured analysis process and an exploratory ethnographic method, with potential to reveal hidden issues that a normal rapid analysis would not disclose. This paper describes the preparation, use, and method in detail. We also report on our results using the Artifact Map to improve our understanding of the context of a vessel traffic center. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
